Jazz à Juan International Festival

See you from 9 to 19 July 2026!

Attention music lovers! Juan-les-Pins lives to the rhythm of the diversity and programming offered by the Jazz à Juan Festival, the ultimate mix of all genres! What better setting than the Pinède Gould to welcome the biggest names in jazz?

From 9 to 19 July 2026, this emblematic event promises a unique blend of big names on the international scene, young talent and a friendly seaside atmosphere.

THE BEST IN JAZZ IS WAITING FOR YOU!

Did you know? The Jazz à Juan Festival is the oldest jazz festival in Europe!

Founded in 1960, Jazz à Juan is more than just a jazz festival – it’s a festival of Afro-American music and its derivatives.

Jazz is of course present, but it’s not the majority.

Rock, soul, funk, pop, blues, chanson and world music are also on the bill! But the Jazz à Juan Festival is also about ‘offs’, with nearly 200 musicians taking to the streets of Antibes and Juan-les-Pins to the sound of their trumpets and saxophones.

Jazz fans are invited to enjoy a friendly, accessible musical experience with the Jammin’ Summer Session in Juan-les-Pins.

From 9 to 19 July 2026, the Petite Pinède will be hosting free concerts every evening from 7.15 to 8.15pm, showcasing emerging jazz projects and those not yet well known to the general public. In this natural, relaxed setting, everyone can enjoy the music in their own way: seated facing the stage for attentive listening, in the shade of the pine trees or comfortably seated on the nearby terrace.

The aim of these sessions is to reveal young talent, mainly from the European scene, who are bringing the creativity and energy of today’s jazz to the world in all its diversity. In addition, there will be two intimate sessions at the Albert Camus media library in Antibes on 15 and 18 July at 11am, combining concerts and discussions with the artists. It’s a great invitation to curiosity and discovery, up close and personal with those who are shaping contemporary jazz.
