Despite being one of the biggest jazz festivals in Switzerland, Cully Jazz Festival has retained it’s intimate and welcoming atmosphere.
Cully is a charming village set in a wine-growing region on the shores of Lake Geneva.
Since 1983, the villagers have been welcoming jazz connoisseurs to this nine-day celebration of wine and music.
There will be some ticketed concerts across three stages plus over 100 free concerts.
The ticketed concerts form the IN Festival, while the free concerts can be discovered at the OFF Festival.
The OFF Festival consists of 15 cafés and wine cellars spread around the village where you can sample wine and listen to up-and-coming Swiss jazz musicians.
