An event from the Isle of Wight Jazz Weekend has been upgraded to a larger venue.

The weekend, which will run from September 18 to September 22, will see a range of jazz's finest acts perform in Newport.

Sunday headliner, The Claire Martin and Jim Mullen Trio, has been upgraded to Newport Minster to cater for demand. 

Singer Claire became a professional at 19, and was soon performing in Ronnie Scott's jazz club in London.

Tickets are available via iwjazzweekend.co.uk.

All kinds of jazz music will be represented across the weekend, with Sounds of Shearing catering for cool jazz fans, Muse Manouche for gypsy jazz, and the Matt Carter Octet for modern jazz.
