The Scott Joplin International Ragtime Foundation (SJIRF) Board of Directors will determine the date of the next Festival by an announcement on or before February 15, 2021. The scheduled dates are June 2-5, 2021.
However, concerns about the infection rate of the Covid virus and availability of a vaccine may cause a cancellation or postponement. The Board must make a decision by March 1 in order to be reimbursed for any contracts, rentals or commitments it has made for the June dates. The SJIRF will notify fans and interested parties by posting an update here as well as on our Facebook page. We appreciate your patience and encourage you to continue your diligence in guarding against the virus.
