The Jazz Band performs at events such as Spartanburg鈥檚 Spring Fling, Music on Main, Dickens of a Christmas, and for special programs such as the Pan American Games for the Blind. The Jazz Band also performs on its own during the popular 鈥淚ce Cream Sundays鈥� Summer Concert Series and the Christmas Festival.
