Bucharest Jazz Festival (19 - 25 September 2016)

Posted 26th July 2016



Bucharest Jazz Festival
is the flagship jazz event of ARCUB. Conceived as a yearly event that takes place in the first week of July, Bucharest Jazz Festival is intended to be the major jazz event of Romania’s Capital and aims to become fully integrated in the national and European contexts.

Placing a strong accent on supporting the local Romanian jazz scene, Bucharest Jazz Festival is, at the same time, a bridge for world class jazz and a platform for the latest trends in contemporary jazz. Its mission is to create a place of excellence for jazz and improvised music, while making professional tools and good practices available to musicians so as to foster an environment for future collaborations between the Romanian jazz scene and the rest of the world.

The Festival functions with an invited curator, usually a leading & established jazz musician or promoter. ARCUB offers the production, logistics and principal financing for the Festival through public funding from the City of Bucharest.
