Ladies’ Jazz Festival Gdynia 2024
Ladies’ Jazz Festival is an annual event, taking place each July in Gdynia since 2005. The concerts are primarily in Gdynia Music Theatre and Kashub Philharmonic, but also in the urban open air. At this festival, the audience can witness the musical craft of the world-class ladies, who present not only conventional jazz compositions, but also elements of soul, blues, and other music genres.
It is this very festival that gives Gdynia claim to be the world’s capital city of female jazz for those couple of July days!
