Jazz Open Modena 2026: Modena Hosts Europe's Grand Festival

Modena is preparing to become the European hub of music with the first Italian edition of the renowned German festival Jazz Open. The event, officially titled Jazz Open Modena 2026, will take place over six days, from July 13 to 18, 2026. This internationally acclaimed festival is known for its successful "Jazz & Beyond" formula, which blends pure jazz with influences from soul, pop, and rock, regularly hosting world-class stars.

The organizers have chosen two historic and prestigious venues to host the event:

Piazza Roma: This will be the venue for the Main Stage, where major international artists will perform, with the majestic facade of the Palazzo Ducale as a backdrop.

Giardino Ducale Estense: This will host the free-entry Open Stages, dedicated to emerging talents and a more intimate musical program.

Upcoming Announcements

Anticipation is high for the artistic line-up. The organizers have announced that the full program and the names of the expected artists will be officially released towards the end of 2025.

Hotel Cervetta 5 will be ready to welcome you with its magic and its strategic location, behind Piazza Grande, the hub of the upcoming summer evenings.
