THE FESTIVAL HISTORY

The Cincinnati Music Festival, originally called the Ohio Valley Jazz Festival, started in 1962 as an all-jazz concert and has since evolved into a three-day event featuring R&B, jazz, soul, and hip-hop music. The festival has seen performances by renowned artists such as Aretha Franklin, Duke Ellington, Miles Davis, Luther Vandross, and many others. By the year 2000, the festival became the largest of its kind in the United States, drawing over 50,000 attendees annually. The festival has been held at various locations before settling at its current home in Paycor Stadium on Cincinnati’s riverfront. The annual economic impact of the festival is estimated to be around $25 million. Macy’s was the festival’s headline sponsor from 2005 to 2014, and since 2015, Cincinnati-based global company P&G has been the presenting sponsor. The festival is co-promoted by The Santangelo Group and Ohio Valley Entertainment. The Santangelo Group, led by Owner Joe Santangelo, has been promoting the festival since 2005.
