Atom Jazz Fest 2026

About this experience

The inaugural Atom Jazz Fest brings three days of live jazz to the Left Hand Brewing Garden in Longmont, with a lineup that spans student ensembles and Front Range professionals alongside nationally touring acts. Headlining performances come from the Ken Walker Tribute Sextet and Electric Giz, with sets from the Health Walton Quintet, Adam Bodine Quartet, Stafford Hunter Quintet, Alex Loran Sextet, Guerrilla Fanfare, Deborah Stafford Swingtet, and more than a dozen other groups. The Atom Jazz Network, a Northern Colorado 501(c)(3) nonprofit, produces the festival as a direct investment in regional jazz education, mentorship, and gig opportunities for emerging musicians. Admission is free and the event is open to all ages.
