Throughout the week, and until the end of the festival, jazz events and those centered around jazz await you in all neighborhoods of the city: from dance parties to cine-jazz, through musical parades, the “Nice is Jazz” competition, Massรฉna Jazz Off, the Master Class at the Conservatory, and the “Bลufs aux Abattoirs”…
But it is also the entire jazz network that joins the party by offering the Jazz Promenade from July 1 to 7, 2012, to explore the jazz clubs of Nice.
And the icing on the cake, don’t miss the After Hours, the “Jam Sessions” of the Nice Jazz Festival, every night after the concerts at B-Spot, so the party continues in an intimate setting until 3 a.m.
Through “The Jazz Promenade,” discover the many Nice establishments that bring jazz to life in Nice all year round in unusual venues (from the cellar to the restaurant via the lounge bar). These places join the Nice Jazz Festival 2012 and offer the public an itinerary and musical program every night of the week preceding the Festival.
