Description

Following two editions that were very well received by the public and the region’s cultural partners, the third edition of the 1000Jazz festival will take place from October 21 to 25, 2026, in La Chaux-de-Fonds and Le Locle. This new edition will bring together several major artists from the contemporary jazz scene, including Émile Parisien, Robinson Khoury—a recent winner at the 2026 Victoires du Jazz— Macha Gharibian, Andreas Schaerer & Daniel Garcia, and Marc Perrenoud & David Enhco, who will delight festivalgoers’ ears. True to its roots, the festival will also highlight the Swiss and regional music scenes, notably featuring Yumi Ito, MOHS., and the Neuchâtel Conservatory of Music, which will pay a heartfelt tribute to Miles Davis during this year’s festival.
