About Festival Jazz International Rotterdam
Since 2001 Rotterdam has had a successful jazz festival with topical, adventurous and high quality jazz. Festival Jazz International Rotterdam offers a multi-day jazz programme with national and international allure, with plenty of attention for young talent, new projects and a more in-depth peripheral programme.The festival offers visitors (and artists) an adventurous and intense music experience. As a result, it has acquired its own signature and place within the local and international jazz scene.
As of 2019, the festival has started to focus more on local talent. At Festival Jazz International Rotterdam 2019 there will be plenty of room for Rotterdam musicians and new projects, in which (cultural) diversity is a spearhead. Festival Jazz International Rotterdam aims to enrich and deepen what the Rotterdam makers present by programming select (inter)national artists around it.
