Around 8,000 people flocked to Marsden last year for three days of jazz and swing.
Marsden Jazz Festival 2014 was a resounding success, with hundreds of musicians performing throughout the weekend.
The Examiner's Emma Davidson reported: "The sound of trumpets, saxophones and horns filled the air as the village played host to around 600 musicians.
Organisers estimate that up to 8,000 jazz enthusiasts attended this year’s event.
And the particularly vibrant atmosphere was helped by the mild weather, which led to more people enjoying the outdoor events than usual."
One of the organisers, Barney Stevenson, said: “The fine weather has made all the difference.
“A significant number of our events are outside and if it’s raining it spoils the ambience.
“But this year the village was absolutely buzzing.
“The streets were rammed, especially for the parade, and the pubs and clubs were full all weekend for all the gigs.”
The festival even enjoyed some national exposure: virtually sold-out gigs over the weekend included Simon Fell’s The Ragging of Time, which was specially commissioned for Marsden Jazz Festival and recorded for BBC Radio 3.
