For the fifth time, we’ll fill the heart of Józsefváros – Rákóczi Square – with music, life, and community.

True to the district’s character, the festival is diverse: traditional and new directions of jazz meet for three days on two stages – in the square and inside the Market Hall.
Renowned performers and young talents alike will take the stage, alongside many outstanding Hungarian ensembles.

The festival is free, outdoors, and open to all ages – bring your family and friends!
Let’s meet in Józsefváros, where jazz feels at home.

Date: 12–14 September 2025
Venues: Budapest, Rákóczi Square & Rákóczi Square Market Hall
