YONELA MNANA - The Blue Room

THIS VENUE: YONELA MNANA - THE BLUE ROOM An inspired pianist and composer, Mnana’s playing is introspective, poetic and expansive. His work bridges African spirituality and contemporary jazz sensibilities with striking originality. About Jazz In The City: As Cape Town rolls into Jazz Week in March 2026, a new rhythm takes over the inner city. Jazz In The City 2026 reimagines what a jazz festival can be — deconstructing the traditional format and turning a six–block stretch of Bree Street into a one-night, walkable jazz circuit. For one night only, Bree Street — bordered by Castle Street and Wale Street — becomes the Bree Street Jazz Hop. Ten venues and pop-up performance spaces form a dynamic circuit of ticketed and free shows, encouraging audiences to move, explore, and curate their own experience.
