Created in 1986, Ramatuelle Jazz Festival focuses on swing jazz. It gives pride of place to American and French jazzmen, oscillating between new discoveries and established musicians, intimate atmospheres and crazy swing jazz sessions. As well as an exclusive programme of events, including concerts in two parts with an interval, Jazz à Ramatuelle also has a Fringe festival which tirelessly promotes local musicians and delights an audience of new music-lovers with free concerts every night.
