About Ghent Jazz Festival

Ghent jazz festival has been running every year since 2002.

It started as the Blue Note Festival, became the Blue Note Records Festival a few years later and now goes by the name of Ghent Jazz Festival.

You’ll find avant-garde artists alongside mainstream international jazz artists.

Food

Healthy and fresh food is the order of the day.

The Gent Jazz Festival is as much a food festival as it is a music festival.

Handpicked food trucks offer a balanced kitchen with a focus on delicious fruit and vegetables.

If you fly to Charleroi Airport, a shuttle bus travels to Bruges via Ghent nine times a day.

The Gentse feesten occurs at various locations throughout the city, but the beautiful Old Town is the main centre of the event.

Gentsefeesten
