23. LIBURNIA JAZZ FESTIVAL

Opatija, 07. - 09. 07. 2023.

Liburnia Jazz Festival is the largest Croatian international jazz festival. It had its first edition in 2001 and despite all the crises, it has managed to survive to this day.

Every first weekend in July, Opatija "lives jazz". Every year, more than 3,000 visitors make the pilgrimage to the Liburnia Jazz Festival from all over Croatia and all countries in the region.

Our mission is simple but very demanding: close-up the Jazz to the wide public, making it easy and understandable to everybody. Our main target is to close-up theJazz Music to the auditorium unused to the Jazz, to all those who consider it as an exclusive music "from musicians to musicians", as a hermetic expressive form only for the conossieurs. Our job is to convice them to the opposite, to show to everybody that jazz is a pure joy of the performance and improvisation with no borders and boundaries at all.

We are proud to the fact that our job is gaining more and more success through the years. Carefully selected programe can satisfy even the most demanding jazz purist, but at the same time it has to delight and overwhelm every first-time jazz listener sitting in the audience.
