The Nice Jazz Fest, one of three major jazz events in Europe with Montreux and The Hague, draws more than 45,000 spectators every summer with its 500 plus musicians, 8 days, 75 concerts and 120 hours of magic and music! Every night from 7 pm to midnight, 3 stages present a prestigious array of world-famous artists.

The focus is on jazz music but the festival embraces many musical genres with past performers including such legends as BB King, Bebel Gilberto and Jimmy Cliff as well as newer acts such as Jamiroquai, Joss Stone and Katie Melua.

In the historic surroundings of a gallo-roman site, a relaxed and warm, family-like atmosphere where audiences and artists meet naturally.

The Nice Jazz Fest is a musically eclectic event covering all aspects of jazz music, from African roots to avant-garde sounds, from gospel and blues to fusion and urban funk.

Over the years, it has made its mark as the most outstanding event in southern Europe.
