The programme always starts at 9 pm, and all concerts are free of charge.
The diversity and quality of the jazz festival programme vouches for a playful music summer in Poreč. Dance performances on the main square contrasted by chamber music concerts in the intimate ambiance of the lapidarium, authentic music expressions explored through jazz, improvisations by skilled instrumentalists and contributions from numerous local musicians all bring an air of freshness and creativity to the programme, perfectly complemented by the festival’s visual identity.
As typical of jazz, the festival blends different styles into a one-of-a-kind fusion of artistic performances.
