SYRACUSE -- The Northeast Jazz and Wine Festival is coming back to Clinton Square. A special announcement for the festival was held Tuesday morning.

The event, organized by CNY Jazz, will feature music on three stages July 29th through July 31st. There will also be wine tasting events and food.

New this year, CNY Jazz is partnering with the Spanish Action League for World Jazz Sunday. La Liga will provide talent, including Ricky Encarnacion. Other musical acts throughout the weekend include Dee Dee Williams, Atlas, Fowler High School graduate Jackiem Joyner, a Scholastic Festival, and a Battle of the Community Jazz Bands. Click here to read the full schedule of acts.

"The Northeast Jazz and Wine Festival continues to provide Syracuse with one of the most diverse, family-friendly, and exciting festivals in our city's calendar," says festival organizer Larry Luttinger, "It is, after all, the biggest festival of its kind east of the Rockies!"

The music is free, but you can buy Preferred Seating Passes, as well as Wine Tasting Passes. Donations are also welcome. All donations to the festival will support the Red Cross.
