Montreux Jazz Fest 2022

FREE STAGES

Continuing to deliver two weeks of non-stop entertainment and world-class music, Montreux Jazz Festival will also announce their free music programme on 01 June 2022 for festival goers to enjoy. More information can be found via www.montreuxjazzfestival.com.

NEW FORMAT FOR THE FESTIVAL’S 56TH EDITION

Back in full swing this year, the Montreux Jazz Festival also reveals its brand-new format for the 56th edition. Along with the festival’s two iconic venues, the Auditorium Stravinski and the Montreux Jazz Lab, festival-goers will be treated to an array of activities, stages and terraces along the waterfront. An important new edition to the festival this year is the Lake House, which will be the beating heart of the event. This large three-story residence will play host to ten enthralling rooms, each offering a unique experience. Open 24 hours a day, the public will be able to wander freely, enjoying unique experiences ranging from the musical, visual, educational or technological. With bars and lounges on each floor, this large house will be a perfect place to enjoy the festival in a lively and intimate setting. Every day until 5am, the Coupole and the Loggia will be the festival’s top night-time hangouts, with DJ sets. A small quasi-secret room, L’Alcôve will host daily podcasts with prominent guests. Kitted out with cutting-edge sound and visual facilities on the middle floor, the Cinema and the Library, will invite the public to delve into three outstanding artistic collections - more than 300 Live at Montreux vinyls, numerous videos of festival concerts and Switzerland’s largest collection of books on jazz and current music. The Boudoir and the Gallery will complete this floor with projects themed around innovation and new technologies. On the ground floor, an American jazz club, the Memphis, will be dedicated to jazz music in all its forms. The atmosphere will change throughout the evening, with workshops and creations, concerts by up-and-coming groups and the legendary jam sessions.

The Montreux waterfront will once again come to life with food stands, terraces and bars. The 56th edition will offer five free stages, in addition to the Lake House. The Parc Vernex is morphing into a beer garden, an open-to-all venue in which festival-goers can bask on sun loungers and make use of all play areas in the afternoon. In the evening the Parc Vernex will host concerts by some of the most exciting emerging artists on the Super Bock Stage. An open-air nightclub, the Ipanema will host emerging international DJs right at the water’s edge - the ultimate place to party at sunset or under the stars. Continuing the free stage offering, the Lisztomania will explore emerging trends in all kinds of styles, with concerts every night until midnight. The Terrasse ibis MUSIC, will evolve throughout the day as a bar and a laid back vibe in the afternoon, followed by intimate electro-pop performances in the evening and DJ sets at night. From dance classes in the afternoon to sizzling DJ sets in the evening, Latin rhythms and sounds are celebrated every day at El Mundo.

Mathieu Jaton, CEO and Montreux Jazz Festival says: “With so many great artists set to play this year, the 56th edition of the Montreux Jazz Festival will be one of our finest yet. For over 50 years, Montreux has created some of the most magical moments in music and we are excited to continue the festival’s legacy.”
