Dinant Jazz Festival
25th edition of the Dinant Jazz Festival
After a successful 2025 edition, the annual Dinant Jazz Festival returns in grand style to celebrate its 25th edition, with a sumptuous opening night dedicated to German Jazz, in close collaboration with the German Embassy.
Over the years, it has become one of Belgium’s most important jazz festivals, thanks to a set of values that have become inseparable from its history.
Till Brönner as our Guest of Honnor
This year, as is tradition, the festival welcomes Till Brönner as its Guest of Honour. The outstanding German trumpeter will do us the honour of performing over three evenings alongside exceptional musicians.
The festival will once again offer its distinctive, friendly atmosphere, along with the warm availability of its volunteers.
As always, the event takes place in the magnificent setting of Saint Norbert Park, part of Leffe Abbey.
This year’s programme once again strives for a balance between emerging talents, established Belgian musicians and internationally renowned artists, maintaining harmony between jazz and its many facets. All of these values give the event its unique charm and inspire both musicians and festivalgoers alike.
