Jazz Room Fest 2027

04 Jan 2027 - 30 Apr 2027
Riga, Latvia

Jazz Room Fest is a conceptual and artistically curated festival that has been shaping the creative music scene in Latvia and the Baltics for more than 15 years. It reflects a contemporary approach to jazz aesthetics, integrating electroacoustic techniques, free improvisation, and experimental spatial dramaturgy. The festival program is designed as a sound laboratory where genres, technologies, and space come together to create new forms of experience.

Each year, the festival features 70 - 80 concerts, organised into various thematic series that reflect both global trends and developments in the local music scene. In addition to the concerts, the festival organises at least 12 international masterclasses and professional training sessions, providing opportunities for direct interaction with industry professionals - from artists and producers to curators and researchers. These sessions foster knowledge transfer and creative synergy across generations and cultural contexts.

Genre Focus: Electroacoustic music: tape loops, modular synthesisers, field recordings, digital manipulation; jazz in the broadest sense - from its roots in the U.S. to the free-form style in Europe and the influence of ECM.
