Ticketing Information

When is the Melbourne International Jazz Festival?

The 2023 Melbourne International Jazz Festival will take place from 20—29 October 2023.

How do I purchase tickets?

Once the 2023 MIJF program has been launched, tickets for most events can be purchased online through the Melbourne International Jazz Festival website. For any enquiries about the program or ticketing, please contact the MIJF office on (03) 9001 1388 or info@melbournejazz.com

Depending on the event, tickets may be purchased through the venue where the event is occurring or an authorised seller and are sometimes available at the venue box office on the night (subject to availability).

Concessions and Companions

Holders of the following valid concession cards are eligible for concession price tickets, where available: Student Card (full-time), Carer Card, Health Care Card, Pension Card, Veterans Affairs Card, and all government-issued Seniors Cards. Concession price tickets also apply to children 16 years and under.

For tickets purchased through external ticketing agencies (not through MIJF), different concession may apply, please check the venue’s website and terms and conditions for details.

Proof of concession is required when purchasing or collecting your tickets and/or on entering the venue.

Companion card holders qualify for a complimentary ticket for their companion. Please contact Melbourne International Jazz Festival on (03) 9001 1388 or the event venue to purchase tickets.

How do I get my tickets?

Tickets purchased through the Melbourne International Jazz Festival website will be emailed to you. Please make sure to check your spam or junk folders in case your tickets made there way there, instead of your inbox.

If you purchased your tickets through the venue or an authorised seller please contact the point of purchase directly.
