The Fillmore Jazz Festival brings live music and several blocks of vendors (delicious food and fine arts and crafts) to Fillmore Street between Jackson and Eddy Streets in San Francisco for a weekend each year. This year, the festival took place on July 7th and 8th from 10 am until 6 pm each day. It is the largest West Coast Jazz Festival and showcases a number of talented performers.
