Around the festival
Welcome to those eager for discovery!
During the Jazz Festival, the Tourist and Convention Office and Jazz à Juan invite you to enjoy yourself… feast your eyes by visiting the artists’ exhibitions, delight your ears by coming to discover the bands on stage at the Jammin’ Summer Session, or round off your evening at the Jazz Club.
Jammin’Summer session
La Petite Pinède, in Juan-les-Pins, from July 9th to 20th from 7:15 pm to 8:15 pm
The Albert Camus Médiathèque, in Antibes – July 15th and 18th at 11:00
An invitation to discover young jazz talents!
Every evening, from 7:15 p.m. to 8:15 p.m., the Jammin’Summer session invites you to discover an emerging jazz project or an established project that is still unknown to the general public.
These groups are mainly from France, but also from Luxembourg and Switzerland.
For ‘Les Matinales du Festival’, the Albert Camus media library will welcome us again this year for two concerts/discussions on 15 and 18 July from 11 a.m. to 12 p.m. These concerts will be followed by a discussion with the musicians (until 12:30 p.m.).
These young artists represent all the current trends in the jazz scene. Most of them were discovered at Jammin’Juan, the jazz professionals’ market (next edition on 29 and 30 October 2026).
Access to the Petite Pinède is free and open to all. Although the sound is better when you are facing the stage, it can be pleasant to sit in the shade of the pine trees or on a terrace bordering the stage.
Make no mistake, on the Petite Pinède stage you will hear some ‘great’ musicians!
