Details: Every summer, the famous jazz and blues rally organised by the Luxembourg City Tourist Office in collaboration with the Blues Club Lëtzebuerg in Luxembourg City is the quick "Summer in the City" venue and attracts over 25,000 eclectic music lovers, in a friendly atmosphere in the picturesque neighbourhoods of Clausen and the Grund. Fifty concerts will take place on 11 outdoor stages and in 17 concert halls, cafes and restaurants participating in the Grund and Clausen! Like every year, the goal is to engage the public and to popularise the most diverse blues and jazz genres in the right way! And like almost all "Summer in the City" festivals organised by the Luxembourg City Tourist Office, the Blues’n Jazz Rally is free. A recipe that rocks the neighborhoods of the Grund and Clausen in a friendly atmosphere! Those who are not specifically music junkies meet there to hang out and meet friends and acquaintances across the street. More than just a music festival, the Blues’n Jazz Rally is a spirit of conviviality and gathering together. Another key to its success: the spectacular scenes of the city fortress in front of which the concerts are held. Nestled at the bottom of the town at the foot of the ramparts are lit rocky headlands, with views of the UNESCO-classified Bock Casemates... the staging is unique in the world and attracts an audience from across the region and international quality musicians who are applying to participate!
From 19:30, the tone will be launched with international jazz and blues stars, national discoveries, as well as marching bands that will brighten up the streets with their infectious energy! The groups represent the most common variety of blues and jazz: blues rock, rockabilly, Chicago blues, funk, boogie-woogie, reggae blues, Dixieland, New Orleans, mainstream, fusion, new generation, electro and vocal jazz! With twenty blues groups and some twenty jazz bands with big names like Big Pete Pearson & the Gamblers, Jimmy Burns, Gast Waltzing and the National Jazz Orchestra, Louis King, Jitz Jeitz, Ernie Hammes , Howlin 'Bill, Maxime Bender, David Binney, Blood Sweat and Tears, Blues Explosion, Tim Bradley, Mingo Balaguer, Paul Lamb, Twana Rhodes and Paco Renteria. Bar extensions (to 03:00) will be allowed at the participating establishments, while open-air concerts end at 01:00. Like every year, the Blues’n Jazz Rally is both a platform for the Luxembourg jazz scene notorious for its liveliness, creativity and quality as well as including a host of international headliners.
