The San José Jazz Festival is an annual jazz festival organized by the San Jose Jazz Society and held in downtown San Jose, California, USA. It is mostly outdoors.

The festival stopped being free in 2006. The admission this year was $5 per day. Parking ranges from free to 7 or maybe 10 dollars. They advertise over 80 performances. There are typically around 10 stages. The food stands are diverse and excellent. A beer costs as much as the admission. The main stage is in Plaza de Cesar Chavez. The others are nearby.
