International Jazz Day is celebrated on April 30 each year to highlight the importance of jazz music in promoting peace, unity, and dialogue among cultures. Established by the United Nations Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organization (UNESCO) in 2011, this day encourages people worldwide to appreciate jazz and its influence on society. The celebration features various events, including concerts, workshops, and educational programs, showcasing the talents of jazz musicians from different backgrounds. Each year, a different city is designated as the global host, bringing together artists and audiences to celebrate the rich history and cultural significance of jazz music.
