Salzburg Jazz & The City Sounds festival

Overview

The four-day event included roughly 140 artists performing various genres, such as jazz, folk, world music, classical, and electronic crossover, with free admission for the public.

Following the conclusion of the festival, organizers reported high attendance and full venues despite light rain on Saturday evening.
