The Riviera Maya will host its sixth annual jazz festival at Mamitas Beach from Nov. 27 to 29. This year, the festival will draw crowds on the beach of Playa del Carmen, as it will host such jazz greats as Billy Cobham, Earl Klugh, David Sanborn, Hector Infanzon and others, all performing under a star-filled Riviera Maya sky.

On the opening night, Nov. 27, the best of Mexican jazz will be showcased and represented by Beaujean sisters from Mexico City, and followed by Jose “Pepe” Moran, son of the great trumpeter Chilo Moran.

Moran’s performance will be dedicated to his father’s music. On the last night of the festival, Gianluca Littera will open the concert accompanied by Sacbe band and the Toussaint brothers.
