About

The NN North Sea Jazz Festival is a household name all over the world. Outside our national borders, it's also known as the event where the past, present and future of jazz pass by in three days. In addition to that solid foundation of jazz, many genres pass by, such as blues, soul, funk, hip-hop, world, pop and much more.

Over the years there were numerous big names such as Stevie Wonder, Erykah Badu, Miles Davis, Prince, Ella Fitzgerald, Alicia Keys, Lionel Hampton, Al Jarreau, B.B. King, Wynton Marsalis, Trijntje Oosterhuis, Jamiroquai and The Zawinul Syndicate. In addition, the festival also offers new talent a stage to break through. Some names of artists who were first introduced to the European public at NN North Sea Jazz are: Shirley Horn, Tania Maria, Roy Hargrove, Rachelle Ferrell and Gregory Porter.

All this makes the NN North Sea Jazz Festival so unique. A festival where jazz music from the past, present and future is presented under one roof for three days.
