Says Riverview Jazz director Bryan Beninghove.\u201cThis year\u2019s festival is so exciting for many reasons\u201d, \u201cWe are at a new permanent location, which is unbelievable – the views, the transportation, the amenities – just awesome. We\u2019re going to feature community. This is the first time since the pandemic that we have been able to match the scope of the festival as it was pre-Covid. A perfect way to celebrate 10 years!\u201d
