The Belgrade Jazz Festival, Serbia's oldest and most internationally acclaimed jazz event, brings another first-rate programme for its 42nd edition, presenting the latest currents in contemporary jazz. From October 21 to 24, 2026, Dom omladine Beograda will host 13 concerts by prominent international artists and a closing jam session.

The festival's key visual, featuring a stylised trumpet at the confluence of the Sava and Danube rivers below Kalemegdan, inspired this year's slogan — "Jazz Confluence". Belgrade really is that confluence, where for more than half a century the genre's greatest heroes from every corner of the world have met, along with the most varied styles that together describe jazz.
