SAN DIMAS, Calif., July 9 /PRNewswire/ -- Omega Events is proud to announce the lineup for the 12th Annual JazzFest West, formerly the Old Pasadena JazzFest, slated for July 21 & 22. The lineup will feature three hip, urban vocalists ...

MYSTERY
HEADLINER*: On Saturday, July 21, JazzFest West will close the show
with an artist that has never performed at the festival.
This Mystery Headliner has sold millions of records,
received Grammy nominations, and is always at the top of
the "wish lists" of jazz fans. Contractually, we are
forbidden from announcing the artist until the gates open
on July 21, but we guarantee ... it will be a heck of a
party!

WHAT ELSE An international food court will feature an eclectic array
of menu items. Additionally, many original artists and
vendors will be displaying their work at the Vendor Village.
To beat the July heat, Cool Zones will be situated
throughout the grounds with misting systems & shade
structures. A portion of the proceeds from the event will
benefit the Pasadena Kiwanis Club, a local non-profit
organization that supports youth group activities.

TICKETS General admission tickets are $45 per day or $75 for a
two-day pass. VIP tickets ($85 per day) and Gold Tickets
