Following its successful premiere in 2024, the OPEN JAZZ VIENNA Festival returns on November 20th and 21st, 2025, with a focus on Austria. The “FIRST-CONTACT-CONCERTS” will bring musicians together in unprecedented constellations. The unique aspect: each concert is a true premiere – a musical experiment.

Saxophonist Anna Tsombanis, nominated for the 2025 Jazz Prize, will perform with her new quartet. The up-and-coming seven-member band KATATROPIC will also take the stage. With a walking concert— a musical happening in public space—the festival once again showcases the diversity and openness of the Austrian jazz scene, bringing jazz to unusual locations in Vienna.

OPEN JAZZ VIENNA – a festival for jazz fans and newbies!
