"The crowd at The Strand was just awesome so hands down to them for coming down regardless of the weather."
Two concerts at Baycourt, Miho Wada and Midge Marsden, sold out, and other shows were well attended, Ms Chambers said.
"It seems very relaxed compared to previous years. I haven't received any complaints about anything.
"This year, I've never had so many comments from people asking if they can come back next year. The performers seem to have had a great time. Even the volunteers want to come back again."
The "little quirky venues" at the Jazz Village on Sunday and yesterday were packed, Ms Chambers said. Sunday had about 4000 people. Yesterday's numbers were unavailable.
"We're really pleased with the numbers here at The Village, it was a good volume because we didn't want it jam-packed."
Bravo acting manager Peter Fountain said the cafe was busy all weekend and the music on The Strand had been fabulous.
"The atmosphere was just wonderful and we had both a lot of out-of-towners and local support. There were a lot of queues but people were very understanding and we got through them. It's a testament to the great staff we have."
Elizabeth Cafe and Larder owner Andrew Targett said he had been flat out all weekend.
"It's been huge. Even with the bad weather we had a good turnout on Thursday and Friday. It seems to be on par with last year. I think once people commit to an event and get the tickets, you're going to come regardless."
Robert Harris owner Susanne Irwin said Saturday had been quieter than Easter last year, but Sunday was much busier.
Hospitality New Zealand Bay of Plenty chairman Clayton Mitchell, who owns Mount Mellick and Ivory Boutique and Restaurant and Bar, said because the weather was a bit "iffy" he did not think everyone got the numbers they were expecting, but it seemed everyone still had a good weekend.
