re-opened fully renovated 2M2C


Swiss fashion designer Kévin Germanier has created the poster for the 60th Montreux Jazz Festival, taking place from 3 to 18 July 2026. The sensational work is the first embroidered poster in the Festival’s history.
Kévin Germanier s’est particulièrement inspiré de l’affiche de Jean Tinguely pour le choix de couleurs sur un fond sombre et avec des motif de plumes.
This year the newly created spaces of the Montreux convention center (2M2C) will be used for the first time (no lake stage this year). After 3 seasons of closure, the center is open for the 60th Jazz Festival, and thereafter for renting as of August.
See the plans, photographs, and 360 degree virtual visits on their website Brochure PDF:


Montreux uses the phrase, “where legends are born”. For the 60th edition one of the first legends performs again, 60 years later: Charles Lloyd. CEO Mathieu Jaton makes the introduction.
