Jazz fans on the cote d'Azur are in for a real treat once again this summer. The lineup has been announced for the 2015 Jazz a Juan festival, the oldest of its kind in Europe, celebrating its 55th anniversary this summer.

Jazz a Juan is a seaside festival with all the biggest names in jazz taking place in July every year at the Gould Pine Grove in Juan les Pins. As the oldest jazz festival in Europe. Jazz a Juan remains an amazing melting pot where different trends all blend together. Many performers have trodden the boards of the stage in the mythical pine gove since its creation in 1960. The festival has established itself as one of the legendary places where jazz history was made and is eternally renewed through young prodigies like Marcus Miller, Diana Krall, Wynton Marsalis, James Carter or Joshua Redman.

Every year, as well as the concerts on the main stage, Antibes Juan les Pins Tourist Office Celebrates jazz with concerts for jazz lovers in the streets of Antibes Juan les Pins: les Best Of du OFF.

Line up of the 2015 edition: Chick Corea & Herbie Hancock, Santana, Avishai Cohen, Lionel Richie, Al Jarreau, Kenny Garrett, Marcus Miller among others
