Born from the spirit of the legendary Pine Grill nightclub on Jefferson Avenue, the Pine Grill Jazz Reunion is a tribute to Buffalo’s rich Black culture and musical styles.

​

Since the early 1990s, the African American Cultural Center has hosted this beloved summer tradition, gathering generations for two weekends of FREE live music, community connection,

and cultural celebration in Martin Luther King Jr. Park on Buffalo's East Side.

 

Honoring the legends who once played the original Pine Grill and spotlighting today’s rising stars,

the Pine Grill Jazz Reunion keeps the beat of Buffalo’s Jazz, Blues, Soul, and R&B music.
