Three evenings of jazz in the highest village of the Imperia hinterland
At over nine hundred meters above sea level, the village of Bajardo (Province of Imperia) is one of the most spectacular balconies in the Ligurian hinterland of Ponente, from which the view stretches across the Riviera dei Fiori to the sea. In this setting, for three evenings at the beginning of August, the Bajardo Jazz Festival takes place, a musical event now in its third edition in 2026. It combines musical quality with the charm of a timeless atmosphere, between sky and sea.
The festival offers three evening events with live jazz music, enlivening the alleys and squares of the village. The intimate size of the town and the summer atmosphere of the high-altitude evenings make the experience particularly evocative, far from the crowds of the coastal towns and immersed in the tranquility of the Imperia hinterland.
The Jazz Festival is one of the elements of Bajardo's rich summer calendar, which also includes the historic Festa Ra Barca and traditional festivals. The choice to bring jazz to the mountains demonstrates the small municipality's desire to renew its cultural offerings, blending tradition and contemporary proposals in one of the most fascinating villages on the Riviera di Ponente.
The 3rd edition of the Bajardo Jazz Festival enlivens the village from August 7 to 9, 2026, with three evenings of live jazz concerts. The festival brings great music to the alleys and squares of the town, in a panoramic setting overlooking the Riviera dei Fiori. The festival is one of the events in Bajardo's summer calendar.
The detailed program with the bands and times for the three evenings will be announced by the organization closer to the event.
By car: from the A10 motorway, exit at Arma di Taggia or Sanremo, then take the road to the hinterland until Bajardo. By train: Sanremo station, then bus to the hinterland.
Evening concerts in the historic center; information on access and reservations at the Municipality of Bajardo.
