The Sweet & Hot Music Festival, which celebrates its 13 year, at the Los Angeles Marriott Hotel, August 29, 30, 31, September 01, 2008, is considered “The Finest Combination Jazz Party/Festival in the U.S.”

Each Labor Day weekend at the Los Angeles Marriott, the Sweet & Hot Music Festival takes over 4-days of Swing, Be Bop, Big Bands, Dixieland, and Classic American Jazz Music, often in 8 venues at once.

Celebrate with us the Golden Age of American Popular Music, music from the 20s, 30s, and 40s.
Take a “Walk in The Past Lane” with our cavalcade of decades for your listening and dancing pleasure.
Great Music ~ Great Dancing ~ Great Jazz ~ Great Fun
