Umbria Jazz Festival 2027 will take place in Perugia from July 9 to July 18, 2027, bringing ten consecutive days of jazz and related music to the capital of Umbria. The dates have been officially confirmed for the festival’s main summer edition. The event combines major ticketed concerts with free performances in squares and gardens, specialist jazz programs in historic theaters, intimate indoor sessions, street parades, educational activities, and late-night music. This multi-venue structure allows performances to continue from daytime until late at night throughout central Perugia. Although jazz remains the artistic foundation of the festival, Umbria Jazz has long included blues, soul, funk, R&B, Brazilian music, pop, and rock alongside more traditional and contemporary forms of jazz. Different venues are used for different musical identities rather than presenting every genre on the same stage. Perugia itself is an essential part of the experience. Concerts take place around its medieval and Renaissance streets, historic squares, gardens, theaters, museums, and outdoor venues, creating a festival closely integrated with the urban landscape of the Umbrian capital rather than isolated within a single purpose-built festival site.
