Snow Jazz Gastein 2026

"La Dolce Vita" is the title of SNOW JAZZ GASTEIN 2026 and presents sounds from our southern neighbor Italy on this very theme. The art of enjoying life is something I observe time and again on my travels to our southern neighbors, and that is why we want to present a bit of this "Italianità" to you in our venue, at least acoustically. We have invited a number of musicians to the festival who have internalized this way of life in their music and will showcase it with us. For the other things that belong to the "Dolce Vita," one probably has to head south and travel to Italy if this way of life does not already reside within you. However, we want to contribute a little with this festival. "Viva la vita" - we look forward to seeing you!
