Join fellow jazz music fans with a 2-day pass to Standard Bank Joy of Jazz festival while staying in upscale Sandton.

About Your Trip

On this DreamTrip for guests ages 21 years and older, come together with music lovers from all over the world to hear smooth jazz sounds by renowned national and international performers. Relish 2 days at Standard Bank Joy of Jazz, the longest-running jazz music festival in South Africa. At Sandton Convention Centre, take in shows that include legendary saxophonist Branford Marsalis, award-winning bassist Christian McBride and Pretoria-born vocalist Tutu Puoane. From solo and group acts to up-and-coming and seasoned artists, this festival offers something for everyone.

Use free time to shop at Sandton City shopping center — only 1 mile (1.6 kilometers) from the hotel. Other popular attractions include the Carlton Centre’s observation deck, the Johannesburg Zoo and the Cradle of Humankind, a UNESCO World Heritage site where nearly one-third of the known early hominid fossils have been found.

What we love:
• 2017 marks the 20th anniversary of the Standard Bank Joy of Jazz festival.
• With its towering skyscrapers and premier shopping and entertainment, the affluent Sandton area not only resembles Manhattan, but serves as South Africa’s Wall Street.
• To say Johannesburg is an eco-friendly city is a huge understatement — it contains the largest man-made urban forest in the world.
