    2009 Jazz & Ribs Fest is Relocating to Arena District

    This year marks the 30th anniversary of the Columbus Jazz & Ribs Festival, and due to continued riverfront construction, the fest is moving over to the Arena District for its July 24-26 run. Last year’s festival was thrown a bit of a curveball when the Town Street Bridge was closed just days before the festival started. The Jazz & Ribs Fest was also in danger of cancellation this year during recent city budget cuts, but it was just announced on Friday that money was being reallocated so that the festival could go on.
