56th Montreux Jazz

We remember the atrocious weather of last year‘s cautious return following a year of no festival because of Covid.

In 2022 we have just the opposite — a heatwave; the jazz is back, the ambience is back, and everything has been done to maximise everyone’s enjoyment. See our post for more description.
