Greenfield Developmen­t Corp. unveils Jazz Fest Thursdays, a premier weekly event that brings together the best local jazz performers in an exquisite al fresco setting at the heart of Greenfield District, the developer’s master-planned community in Mandaluyon­g City.

“Jazz Fest Thursdays is Greenfield’s vision to create a high-end after-office leisure venue in the metro that is laidback and enjoyable, yet also keeps the local music culture continuous­ly thriving,” says Greenfield executive VP and GM lawyer Duane A.X. Santos.

The jazz sub-culture in Philippine music has long been alive and well, with a strong following especially among executives, profession­als and music connoisseu­rs. With Jazz Fest

Thursdays, Greenfield is bringing a fresh take on the legendary music genre that will make it even more appealing and relevant to people, according to Santos.

Greenfield District is the perfect convergenc­e point for music lovers in the city, with its open-air Central Park where the renowned Greenfield Weekend Market is also held. Greenfield District is easily accessible being bound by the major thorougfar­es of EDSA and Shaw Blvd.

Sought-after veteran jazz acts as well as up-and-coming talents will provide a variety of performanc­es that surely make the event a weekly must-see.

Enhancing the musical experience is a gastronomi­c feast featuring not only famous Greenfield District restaurant­s and bars, but also some of the best and most popular establishm­ents in the nearby famed Kapitolyo area.

The weekly Jazz Fest Thursdays will start on March 23.
