The  Potomac Jazz & Seafood Festival, one of the Mid-Atlantic’s  signature, award-winning jazz events, provides visitors with lots of  jazz music, seafood, stunning waterside views and a variety of  activities for jazz enthusiasts in St. Mary’s County, Maryland, where  visitors are encouraged to relax waterside on the scenic museum lawn and  enjoy national jazz artists, lots of delicious local seafood and  gorgeous views of the Potomac River.

This  popular, annual festival, which has become known for over two decades  for showcasing local culinary delicacies of Maryland’s Mother County in  addition to renowned, national jazz talent, draws close to 1000 jazz  enthusiasts every year. The event, beginning back in 1999, was expanded  to a 3-day weekend event  in 2019 for its 20th Anniversary. The 20th  anniversary festival was recognized by the Maryland Office of Tourism’s  “Maximizing Opportunities Award” – the only event in Maryland to receive  this distinction.
