2025 EFG London Jazz Festival

Now firmly established on Europe’s jazz festival circuit, this year’s EFG London Jazz Festival will run from November 14th to 23rd. Once again, global stars and emerging talent can be heard in various locations throughout the city. And that’s part of the fun of this festival: you get to see so many different parts of the city and dive into basement jazz bars as well as into big concert halls. This year’s line-up is far from complete, but there are some great names already confirmed: the festival will start again with the Jazz Voice Opening Gala with a dazzling line-up of soloists. Aja Monet is artist in residence this year. Chris Thile will perform at Queen Elizabeth Hall. Also, there’s the Dee Dee Bridgewater Quartet, Kurt Elling and the Yellowjackets celebrate Weather Report, Marco Mezquida, Bilal, Hermeto Pascoal & Grupo, Jasmine Myra + Strings at Hackney Church, the Evolution of UK Jazz – 20 Years on feat. Shabaka and Camilla George at the Barbican, Makaya McCraven, Taylor Eigsti Group feat. Becca Stevens, Bryony Jarman-Pinto at the Toulouse Lautrec, Cleveland Watkiss, Bill Frisell, and so many more.
