About Stockholm Jazz Festival

Stockholm Jazz Festival is one of Sweden’s largest and longest-running festivals – a living testament to the breadth, power, and unifying spirit of jazz. Each year, the festival brings together over 30,000 visitors during ten days filled with concerts, encounters, and musical discoveries – as jazz rhythms seep into every corner of the city.

Since 2012, the festival has taken the shape of an indoor city-wide celebration, letting jazz resonate across more than seventy venues – from concert halls to basements, museums, bookstores, bars, and cultural centers. The program features around 300 acts from around the world, showcasing everything from international legends to the next generation of voices.

Stockholm Jazz Festival presents jazz as a living, curious, and ever-evolving force. Tradition meets experimentation, acoustic blends with electronic, the intimate collides with the explosive. It’s a festival that is both curated and open – where the expected meets the unexpected.

With a clear structure separating the curated main program from the open, community-driven segment, we create a festival where all of Stockholm becomes a co-creator. The festival emerges in collaboration with venues, institutions, restaurants, cultural trailblazers, and audiences alike – making sure jazz is heard both where you least expect it and exactly where you want it.

Stockholm Jazz Festival is organized by Fasching.
