The official program for the 41st Havana Jazz Plaza Festival has been released, confirming that Jazz Plaza 2026 will be one of the most expansive and musically ambitious editions in the festival’s history.
Taking place from January 25 through February 1, 2026, the festival unfolds across Havana, Santiago de Cuba, Santa Clara, and—for the first time—Holguín. This year’s event combines large-scale concerts, intimate club shows, and the critical Coloquio Internacional de Jazz, an academic program that sets this event apart from other international jazz festivals.
