The Venezia Jazz Festival 2027 will bring another international music programme to Venice in summer 2027, continuing an event created by Veneto Jazz and developed around concerts staged across some of the city’s most distinctive historic and cultural locations. The upcoming edition will be the 19th edition of the festival. Since its creation in 2008, Venezia Jazz Festival has established a format that connects live music with Venice itself. Rather than relying on a single festival ground, previous editions have used theatres, churches, cultural institutions, hotels, public spaces and other historic venues, allowing each performance to acquire a different architectural and acoustic context. Although jazz remains fundamental to the festival’s identity, its programmes have never been limited exclusively to traditional jazz. Over the years, the event has incorporated soul, funk, world music, electronic music, contemporary composition and crossover projects, alongside performances by internationally recognised jazz musicians. The Venezia Jazz Festival 2027 is produced by Veneto Jazz, an organisation active in the region for decades and responsible for concerts featuring some of the most important figures in international jazz and contemporary music. Its activities extend beyond Venezia Jazz Festival and include concerts, special events, educational projects and collaborations with cultural institutions. Read more [...]
