Gentlemen Start Your Engines, the 30th Anniversary Playboy Jazz Festival About to Begin! Playboy Jazz Festival at the Hollywood Bowl Saturday & Sunday, June 14 & 15, 2008

Save the date for Playboy's annual celebration of jazz and blues with a spectacular array of musical talents. This year marks the 30th Anniversary of the event that continues to bring the biggest names in jazz to the Hollywood Bowl in Los Angeles.

Since 1959 and his first Playboy Jazz Festival in Chicago, Playboy magazine Editor-in-Chief Hugh M. Hefner has brought outstanding performers such as jazz genius Ray Charles, George Benson, Chris Botti, Miles Davis, Ella Fitzgerald and singer Etta James to the stage. This year's 30th Anniversary concert in Los Angeles will be no different. Herbie Hancock, Al Jarreau, Guitars & Saxes and James Moody are a few of the many artists to look forward to as well as legendary Jazz Festival emcee Bill Cosby.
