If you're a fan of live music and a lively pub atmosphere, then look no further than right here at The Duke of York in Ipswich. For years now, we've been proud to be one of the town's key venues for live music, hosting an array of incredible gigs from both established acts and up-and-coming local talent. But that's not all – we’re also deeply committed to supporting Ipswich’s vibrant music scene through our regular jam nights, where anyone can get involved, whether you’re a seasoned musician or just a music lover wanting to soak in the sounds.
A Home for Local Talent
At The Duke of York, we believe in the power of music to bring people together. Our regular jam nights have become a staple in the Ipswich music scene, providing a stage for musicians to showcase their skills and meet like-minded creatives.
We’ve been proudly hosting the Ipswich Jam Night every Thursday for several years, and it has become an essential part of the town's musical calendar. Every week, we see musicians from all ages and walks of life join us to share their love of music in a welcoming, supportive environment. It’s not just about the performances – it’s about community, collaboration, and having fun.
But that’s not all. Recently we've expanded our jam offerings to cater for even more musical tastes. In addition to our regular Thursday jam night, we now host a monthly acoustic blues jam on the fourth Wednesday of each month. Whether you’re a fan of soulful blues or fancy trying your hand at something new, this night is proving a fantastic addition to the calendar.
And that's not the end of our musical journey. We are also delighted to now be the new home of the Ipswich Jazz Jam, which takes place on the third Tuesday of every month. From smooth ballads to lively improvisations, this jam is perfect for anyone who loves the improvisational spirit of jazz. Whether you’re a jazz enthusiast or a player yourself, we invite you to come down and join in on the fun.
All Jams, All Welcome
The beauty of our jam nights is that they are open to everyone. The jam sessions are free to attend, so whether you're there to listen or you're eager to perform, there’s no barrier to entry. We welcome musicians of all skill levels to sign up and perform on the night, so if you fancy getting up on stage, simply make sure to arrive by 8pm to get your name down on the musician’s list.
If you’re not a musician but love a good live performance, come along and enjoy the music in the warm and lively atmosphere of our pub. With a pint in hand and great tunes filling the air, you’ll see why The Duke of York is Ipswich’s go-to destination for live music.
Food, Drink, and a Great Atmosphere
No jam night is complete without a hearty meal and a drink to enjoy while you listen. At The Duke of York, we serve our smokehouse and pizza menu on all our jam nights, so whether you're here to grab a bite before the jam begins or you’re simply hungry during the night, there’s something to satisfy every appetite.
So, mark your calendars, grab your instrument, or simply bring your best self along to one of our jam nights. We can’t wait to see you at The Duke of York, where we're proud to be part of Ipswich's musical heartbeat.
