About Gubbio No Borders

Born in 2002, the Gubbio No Borders is among Italy's most appreciated summer jazz festivals. For weeks, the historic centre hosts concerts in cloisters and squares, but the festival also goes 'without borders' between the arts: alongside jazz, there's room for singer-songwriter music, cinema, satire theatre, literature, photography, and philosophy. A quality showcase that blends big names and new talents in the most beautiful spots of the Umbrian village, in the province of Perugia.

A Jazz Festival Without Borders

The Gubbio No Borders Festival was born in August 2002 and has quickly earned a prominent position among Italian summer jazz festivals for the quality of its offerings. Organized by the Associazione Jazz Club Gubbio, it takes its name from the idea of transcending all frontiers, both musical and geographical.

Beyond Music

The festival is not limited to jazz: over the years, it has expanded its program to include singer-songwriter music, cinema, satire theatre, literature, journalism, photography, and philosophy. This multidisciplinary approach makes it a well-rounded cultural event.

The Festival Venues

Concerts and meetings take place in the most evocative locations in Gubbio, in the province of Perugia: the cloister of San Pietro, the Roman Theatre, the cloister of Sant'Agostino, and the squares of the historic centre. Over the years, the festival has hosted major national and international jazz names, alongside masterclasses and jam sessions that liven up the Gubbio evenings.

Gubbio No Borders — edition 2026

The Gubbio No Borders Jazz Festival returns in summer 2026 with its usual showcase of jazz concerts and multidisciplinary events in the city's historic sites. The dates and detailed program for the 2026 edition will be announced by the Associazione Jazz Club Gubbio in the months preceding the event.

The 2026 edition of the Gubbio No Borders Festival is expected in the summer, following the tradition that has animated Gubbio with jazz concerts and cultural events since 2002. As in previous years, the program is expected to unfold between July and August, with evenings in the cloister of San Pietro, at the Roman Theatre, and in the historic centre squares, complementing jazz with singer-songwriter music, cinema, theatre, literature, and photography.

Currently, the official dates and program for 2026 have not yet been published. Please refer to the official website of the Associazione Jazz Club Gubbio for updates.
