EFG London Jazz Festival Coming to Fulham Pier
Venue to host two performances for London-wide event
Jazz FM Vocalist of the Year Judi Jackson
September 28, 2026
Fulham Pier is to host performances as part of the EFG London Jazz Festival this November.
The riverside venue will welcome two highly regarded artists during the festival, with steel pan virtuoso Leon Foster Thomas performing on 13 November and Jazz FM Vocalist of the Year Judi Jackson taking the stage on 14 November. The appearances bring internationally recognised talent to a venue that is increasingly establishing itself as a focal point for live music in the area.
Fulham Pier has developed a regular programme of jazz events and has become one of the few locations in the area offering curated performances throughout the year.
A key part of that programme is Jazz Box, a series that showcases both established and emerging performers. The initiative has helped introduce new talent to local audiences while maintaining a varied programme that appeals to dedicated jazz fans and newcomers alike.
The EFG London Jazz Festival, one of the UK’s biggest annual jazz celebrations. It takes place every November across London, bringing together global stars, emerging artists, major concert halls and grassroots venues for ten days of live music, collaborations and special commissions.
The festival is curated and produced by Serious, with headline sponsorship from EFG Private Bank. It has grown into a city-wide cultural event, now in its 34th year, and spans more than 60 –70 venues across London, from the Royal Festival Hall and Barbican to independent clubs and late-night spaces.
The EFG Jazz Festival's decision to include Fulham Pier in this year's programme reflects the venue's growing status within London's cultural landscape. Organisers say the performances form part of a wider commitment to bringing world-class music to audiences beyond traditional arts venues.
