Home to Live Jazz Music in Dorset and Devon
Welcome to Jazz Jurassica
Jazz Jurassica is home to live jazz music in Dorset and Devon.
🎶🌊 And 2025 marks our 10th Anniversary, and we’re getting ready to celebrate in style! 🎶🌊
As two devoted music lovers based in Lyme Regis, we can’t wait to share our passion for live music up and down the Dorset and Devon coasts.
Our Spring/Summer 2025 programme will bring 57-varieties of hard-bopping, toe-tapping, finger-clicking, groove-pumping jazz to Lyme Regis and Seaton.
We’ll be revealing the full lineup and releasing tickets soon — so watch out for announcements both here and across social media. To make sure you never miss what’s on in Lyme Regis and Seaton sign up for our email alerts here.
Are you a high-energy junkie looking for an explosive night out in a buzzy auditorium? Or prefer a chilled intimate jazz supper?  Come solo, with a partner, with friends or bring the whole gang – you’ll always find a warm welcome.
Whether you’re visiting the Jurassic Coast or lucky enough to live here, don’t miss the other must-visit jazz hotspots. The Jazz Cafe in Sandbanks Poole, serves up live jazz with fine dining. Plus, don’t miss the Sidmouth International Jazz & Blues Festival in May, Swanage Jazz Festival in July or the eclectic We Out Here festival in August.
Here’s to ten more years of world class music along the Jurassic Coast. Join us for the celebrations! 🎶🌊

“I’ve been a jazz and blues fan for many years with little on offer to tempt me locally. But you’ve changed all that by giving us top class jazz on a regular basis. You also seem to have a happy knack of spotting new young talent. You’ve made such a difference to the music scene here.”
