Haarlem Jazz & More
Come and enjoy the beautiful city of Haarlem with a soundtrack this August 15 - 17 as Haarlem Jazz & More fills the streets with international artists and swinging beats.
Haarlem Jazz & More music festival
Haarlem market square is usually known for the incredible weekend market it hosts, with its large arrays of delicious Dutch food. This August, however, you can take a seat at one of the many terraces and enjoy a beer and some jazz.
With three stages set up on different sides of the square, Haarlem is set to become jazz central for the weekend!

The music kicks off at 6pm each day and bands or DJs play until midnight on Thursday, August 15 and until 1am on Friday and Saturday, August 16 and 17. But don't worry, you get Sunday off to recover from all your late-night dancing!

Getting to Haarlem Jazz & More
The festival takes place on the Grote Markt and surrounding streets. Haarlem has, like most Dutch cities, a medieval centre, so driving in is not recommended due to narrow streets and limited parking. Public transport is the best way to get here. The Grote Markt is just a 10-minute walk from Haarlem central train station, which is well connected to the rest of the Netherlands by both train and bus.
The festival is free and no tickets are required. You can check out the whole programme on the Haarlem Jazz & More website.
