DJANGO- ATHENS GYPSY JAZZ FESTIVAL

 

Multicolored, versatile, full of rhythm, original and joyful, are a few descriptions of the Django Festival. It is a festival that includes musicians, dancers and cultural groups dedicated to the great music and art inspired by Django Reinhardt with his swing manouche gypsy jazz.

 

DJANGOFEST works with instrument manufacturers, set designers, photographers, DJs and independent dance groups to create an annual event for gypsy jazz artists that captures the imagination of the audience. Every Djangofest is a unique celebration for all jazz lovers and friends of the City’s alternative concert scene.

Djangofest perfectly combines a range of cultural events and live performances that audiences love. It has expanded to include narratives and games for kids, directly associated with the event and Django Reinhardt in recent years. The first Djangofest took place on May1st 2010, on the occasion of the 100th anniversary of Django Reinhardt birth.

Entry is free. For more information please visit the website: https://www.facebook.com/djangofest.greece/
