Gina’s Top Concerts of 2024

It’s been a pretty amazing year re:live concerts. We’ve been visiting some great festivals again this year: as usual, North Sea Jazz in Rotterdam stands out as one of the best. It was also our second time at Rockit in Groningen and we’ll make sure to come over again next year. Also, for the first time, we were able to check out the EFG London Jazz Festival. I’ve always wanted to go. Needless to say, Berlin was host to some of the most fantastic shows again in the past year. We’ve reviewed almost all of the shows so if you click on the artist names in the list below, you can directly go to the original piece. And so, here are our favorite shows of 2024 and we hope to see you out there again in 2025. Let’s all continue to support live music!
