The 20th edition platinum anniversary of Jumpers and Jazz in July is here and the Southern Downs and Granite Belt Visitor App is making it simple to be part of Australia’s premier winter festival where last year the Yarnbombed Tree Exhibition, coordinated by the Warwick Art Gallery, took home gold in the Australian Street Art Awards as the ‘Best Small Town Festival or Event’.
The Jumpers and Jazz in July Venue Trail made its debut on the Southern Downs & Granite Belt Visitor App in 2023 and it was so well received that it is back again in 2024 to put useful event information in the palm of your hand and personalise your event schedule for the full 11 days of the festival.
Mayor Melissa Hamilton encouraged festival goers to streamline their Jumpers and Jazz in July 2024 experience by downloading the Southern Downs & Granite Belt Visitor App and keeping track of all the events through the customised venue trail.
“We’ve all come to know and love the festival’s diverse program of events which offers something for everyone,” Cr Hamilton said.
“Enjoy delicious food and wine as you explore the festival, discover handcrafted treasures at the artisan markets, tap your feet to the rhythmic tunes of jazz bands across the town and enjoy winter fun, Southern Downs style.
“The official Southern Downs & Granite Belt Visitor App is the ultimate free travel resource to help you find the festival’s venues and 160 event experiences as well as all the visitor information you need for a perfect stay in the Southern Downs.”
If you don’t already have the app on your phone, head to the App Store or Google Play, search for Southern Downs and follow the download instructions.
To find the Jumpers and Jazz in July 2024 Venue Trail, simply open the app, tap on ‘Trails’, and then tap on Jumpers and Jazz in July 2024.
Used in conjunction with the commemorative A4, 52-page glossy full-colour 20th Anniversary Festival Guide, produced by the festival organisers, the venue trail will help you pinpoint the locations of venues on a map, confirm which events are happening at each venue, add venues and events to your day using the ‘My Day’ love heart functionality and navigate to a venue from your current location.
The 20th Anniversary Festival Guide which is a fabulous commemorative edition featuring stories, images, links to interesting anecdotes and local tours, which you can download from the Jumpers and Jazz website jumpersandjazz.com.au/info/program/) or purchase for $5 from the Warwick Visitor Information Centre in Warwick Town Hall at 72 Palmerin Street, Warwick to keep as a memento of what will be a truly memorable occasion.
