Find Live Jazz Tonight

The fifth set is where the real playing happens

In jazz clubs, the first four sets are the gig. The fifth set is what happens after... when the house band finishes, the tourists leave, and the musicians who came to listen start picking up instruments. No setlist, no rehearsal, no safety net. Just players testing each other in real time.

That's the spirit behind this platform. We built Fifth Set because finding live jazz shouldn't require checking five websites, scrolling through cluttered event calendars, or relying on word of mouth. The music is out there every single night. You just need to know where.

We curate listings across 7 cities, clean up the data, and present it all in one place. Filter by neighborhood, browse the map, or just see what's happening tonight. No accounts required, no algorithms deciding what you see.

Jazz listings, updated daily

Every day, we curate show times, artists, and venue details for each city we cover. Listings are filterable by neighborhood and time, and every venue is plotted on an interactive map so you can find what's closest. If you run a venue, get in touch to make sure your listings are accurate.
