European festivals Association

With around 70 events per year (concerts as well as symposiums, workshops, readings, exhibitions and other formats), Enjoy Jazz. Festival for Jazz and More, founded in 1999, is the "most extensive jazz festival in the world" (Frankfurter Allgemeine Zeitung) and "is unparalleled in Europe" (Le Monde). Recordings made at the festival have received several prestigious national and international awards, including the "Pulitzer Prize" and the "German Record Critics' Prize". Since 2022, the festival has also operated its own record label. As part of its sustainability transformation process, Enjoy Jazz is networked nationally and internationally and works closely with the Baden-Württemberg Climate Protection Foundation, among others. Claudia Roth, Minister of State for Culture and Media, states: “Enjoy Jazz is at the forefront nationwide, especially in the field of sustainable event management, and is a role model for the entire event industry.”
