The 2016 edition of Bohemia JazzFest will take place between 11 and 19 July 2016 in the squares of seven Czech cities: Prague, Brno, Liberec, Tábor, Pisek, Pilsen, Domazlice.
Highlights of the programme of this year include Charles LLoyd new quartet (USA), Carla Bley trio (USA), Harold Lopez-Nussa trio (CUB), Niogi (ISR), Edi Nulz (AUT), Jasper Blom quartet (NLD) and many more!
Bohemia Jazz Fest has quickly become one of the largest summer music festivals in Europe.
The festival started in 2006 by acclaimed jazz guitarist Rudy Linka, who wanted to present and promote world-class jazz in the Czech Republic. By 2010 it was drawing more than 70,000 jazz fans to historic town squares throughout the country, making a significant economic impact.
All the concerts are open-air, featuring headline performers playing in spectacular medieval settings. And all the concerts are for free.
Thanks to the sponsors, patrons and supporters, Bohemia JazzFest has become more than just another music festival. It’s a summer ritual, a time when jazz fans throughout Central Europe gather in the Czech Republic to hear some of the world’s greatest performers – for free.
