“Jazz à Juan” in July for its 63rd edition
Regarded as the dean of jazz festivals in Europe, the International Jazz Festival of Antibes Juan-les-Pins, known as “Jazz à Juan“, is an essential element of French and European culture and heritage. Its exceptional influence makes it one of the most prestigious and effective communication vehicles for Antibes Juan-les-Pins and the French Riviera on the international stage.
Since its inception in 1960, Jazz à Juan has remained an open and evolving festival over the decades. It’s difficult to name all the artists who have performed in the magical setting of the pine forest.
Since its foundation, “Jazz à Juan” has presented a wide range of jazz styles over the decades, ranging from Swing to be-bop or post-be-bop, from gospel to roots, from soul to funk or rock, from African to European or American, from contemporary to “New Orleans”… Over the years, the audience has changed, but “Jazz à Juan” has always maintained the visceral instinct of its own legend.
Numerous events will mark the celebration of its 63rd anniversary, which will take place from July 8th to July 18th, 2024. It is one of the oldest jazz festivals on the continent, celebrated in one of the most beautiful seaside resorts in France. This place has truly changed the history of music.
