Belgian Jazz Festival 3rd EDITION!!!
3 & 4 april 2026
Why a Belgian Jazz festival?
Belgium is one of the countries in the world with the largest number of musicians but also Jazz lovers in proportion to its population. The Belgian Jazz festival offers Jazz lovers the opportunity to listen to the best on the current Belgian scene in a festival setting on a human and family scale. By Belgian Jazz, we mean, any musician who has his residence in Belgium and who dedicates his artistic practice to this universal music, where the only rule, regardless of the rhythm, the instrumentation, etc., is to leave room for interaction through improvisation.
