About Lagarina Jazz

The Lagarina Jazz Festival brings some of the most anticipated jazz evenings in the Trentino region to Nogaredo, in the heart of Vallagarina. Hosted in the evocative setting of the Distilleria Marzadro, the Nogaredo events combine high-quality improvised music with local food and wine culture. As part of the TrentinoInJazz circuit, this traveling festival enlivens the valley's villages every summer with signature concerts, featuring both major names from the Italian and European scenes and emerging young ensembles, fostering a dialogue between jazz and the traditions of Trentino-Alto Adige.

Signature jazz at the Distilleria Marzadro

The Lagarina Jazz Festival is one of the premier jazz events in Trentino-Alto Adige. Part of the provincial TrentinoInJazz circuit, coordinated by the APS Trentino Jazz association, the festival travels through the villages of Vallagarina every summer. One of its most distinctive venues is the Municipality of Nogaredo (Province of Trento), where concerts are held in the atmospheric setting of the Distilleria Marzadro, a historic local institution dedicated to Trentino grappa and liqueurs.

Nogaredo: a unique stop between music and grappa

In Nogaredo, the Lagarina Jazz evenings find a home within the Distilleria Marzadro on Via per Brancolino, where great improvised music intertwines with the food and wine culture of Vallagarina. Here, the audience can enjoy a complete experience: signature concerts often accompanied by guided tours of the distillery and tastings of local products. The Nogaredo program alternates between established masters of Italian and European jazz and young, experimental groups, offering a range that spans from classic jazz and dixieland to more contemporary and experimental sounds.

A festival spread across the territory

Lagarina Jazz is not tied to a single stage; the festival is itinerant and involves, in addition to Nogaredo, nearby municipalities such as Isera, Villa Lagarina, Volano, and Calliano. This widespread format showcases the entire Vallagarina territory, weaving music together with local excellence, from historic palaces to distilleries and wineries, where various concerts are paired with tastings and tours. Active since 2007, the festival reached a significant milestone in 2026, celebrating its twentieth anniversary.

Music, community, and quality

The Lagarina Jazz Festival is designed to introduce a wide audience to jazz and bring life to the summer in Trentino's villages. With programming curated by professionals and a dense network of collaborations with local cultural and gastronomic entities, the festival confirms itself as an unmissable event for enthusiasts and those wishing to discover Nogaredo, the Distilleria Marzadro, and Vallagarina in a new light.
