Шаблон:Infobox recurring event Chivas Jazz Festival (Шаблон:Lang-pt) was a jazz festival held annually from 2000 to 2005 in Brazil, known for high-quality stricto sensu jazz. It was one of two annual jazz festivals in Brazil when it was launched, and for some time was the only such festival. It featured many well-known international jazz musicians, and was known for its insistence on true jazz, avoiding other forms of popular music. In 2005 a change in sponsorship led to a change in name to the Playboy Jazz Festival Brasil.
