Artists’ Submissions for mjf2026 are now closed. Whilst we cannot provide individual feedback on your music and its suitability for the festival programme, should you require any further assistance with your application, please email festival@manchesterjazz.com and a member of the team will be in touch.
Artists’ submissions are usually open for a period of four months from the end of the festival in May until late September. Unfortunately, once the portal has closed and we begin processing applications, we cannot accept late submissions under any circumstances. To avoid missing the deadline next time, please follow us on socials or sign up for our newsletters here.
Thank you to the hundreds of artists that have sent in music for consideration for mjf2026 – we aim to listen to them all.
