Great Italian jazz on the shores of Sebino, also performing in Predore
Lago d'Iseo Jazz is one of the longest-running and most appreciated jazz festivals in Lombardy. A travelling festival on both shores of Sebino, it takes place in the municipalities of Iseo (Brescia), Predore, and Palazzolo sull'Oglio, intertwining great music with the beauty of the locations. The artistic direction is entrusted to Maurizio Franco, and the organization involves the Associazione Secondo Maggio and Sassabanek.
Predore, a small municipality in the province of Bergamo overlooking Lake Iseo, hosts one of the festival evenings each year. The concert is held in the Civic Auditorium San Giovanni Battista, a cultural space created within an ancient church: a venue with intimate acoustics and strong charm, where jazz dialogues with the historical heritage of the village.
The Lago d'Iseo Jazz program alternates big names in Italian jazz with author projects, with particular attention to the dialogue between generations and tributes to the masters of jazz history. The concerts take place in exceptional settingsโchurchyards, lakeside spots, parksโand are all free admission, a choice that makes the festival an accessible cultural opportunity for everyone.
Experiencing Lago d'Iseo Jazz in Predore means combining listening to top-level music with discovering an authentic corner of the Bergamo side of Sebino, far from the most crowded destinations. An event that confirms Lake Iseo, in Lombardy, as one of the capitals of Italian summer jazz.
The XXXIV edition of Lago d'Iseo Jazz takes place from June 19 to 27, 2026, on both shores of Sebino, with seven concerts in Iseo, Predore, and Palazzolo sull'Oglio. All events are free admission.
The Predore stop is scheduled for Friday, June 26, at 9 PM, in the Civic Auditorium San Giovanni Battista, with a concert by the Enrico Intra Group and the IN-TRA In Duo project by the Milanese pianist and composer.
