NEW YORK, Dec. 21, 2023 /PRNewswire/ -- Today, Black Promoters Collective (BPC) proudly unveils a groundbreaking partnership with Jazz in the Gardens (JITG), marking a significant step towards redefining and expanding the iconic festival experience. This strategic collaboration with the City of Miami Gardens is set to elevate the renowned Jazz in the Gardens music festival to new heights. The festival dates are slated for Saturday, March 9^th, and Sunday, March 10^th, 2024, and will take place at Hard Rock Stadium, home to the Miami Dolphins, Miami Tennis Open, and Formula One Racing; the festival's venue choice resonates with the vibrancy and energy of South Florida.

Promoter presale tickets go on sale today, Thursday, December 21 at 10 AM local time via the code BPC. Attendees can access tickets here.

The soul-stirring, Grammy™ award-winning, and multi-platinum-selling Maxwell will headline while Babyface, Jeezy, Scarface, Jaheim, Tamia, Marsha Ambrosius, October London, and DJ Cassidy's Pass the Mic Live! with special guests are just a few of the incredible talents set to grace the festival's stages. JITG is hosted by Rickey Smiley & Jess Hilarious.

"BPC is thrilled to work alongside the City of Miami Gardens to enhance the already vibrant Jazz in the Gardens brand and take it to the next level," states BPC Partner and CMO Troy Brown. "For example, notably, JITG has never incorporated the Afrobeat genre into its lineup. BPC plans to change that and infuse the festival with a mix of genres, promising an unforgettable experience for attendees."

"We are so excited to be hosting the 17^th annual Jazz in the Gardens Music Festival. This year's partnership with the Black Promoters Collective promises an enhanced festival experience, and a line-up of talented artists who represent the diverse culture we have in Miami Gardens and South Florida region," said Mayor Rodney Harris.

This year's festival staging aims to make Jazz in the Gardens bigger and better than ever before. One of the exciting additions is introducing a vibrant marketplace, providing festival-goers with a diverse and immersive experience, offering rebranding strategies and accelerated storytelling, coupled with innovative brand sponsorship activation and a newly installed food truck village. This collaboration promises a dynamic fusion of R&B, Soul, Afrobeat, and Hip-Hop genres, broadening the festival's appeal across diverse age groups.

This collaboration signifies a crucial milestone in the growth of the Black Promoters Collective, expanding its portfolio into festivals and other live performance markets. The partnership with JITG aligns with BPC's commitment to redefining the live performance experience, promising a truly unforgettable festival for all attendees.
