Our Story

Humble Beginnings

In 2009, to celebrate its 60th anniversary, a Fayetteville, N.C. jazz saxophonist and his accompanist provided entertainment on the porch of the Ocean City Community Center.

All in attendance, both visitors and residents enjoyed the celebration, launching the annual Ocean City Jazz Festival as a vehicle to promote and celebrate the history of the Ocean City Community.

The Festival has grown annually in attendance and features nationally recognized jazz artists making it a perfect venue and destination for the summer.
