Havana Jazz Festival 2026

The Havana Jazz Festival (Festival Internacional Jazz Plaza) is one of the most important jazz events in the world. Held each December across multiple Havana venues — including the iconic Teatro Karl Marx and open-air stages — the festival brings together Cuban legends like Chucho Valdés alongside international jazz and Latin fusion artists. The energy of live music in Havana's colonial streets makes this one of the most atmospheric jazz events anywhere.
