Welcome to Pescara Jazz 2027 in Pescara
In July 2027, Pescara Jazz returns to the Adriatic coast of Abruzzo. Founded in 1969, it is regarded as Italy's oldest continuously running jazz festival, bringing international jazz names to Pescara for more than five decades. The main venue is traditionally the Auditorium Flaiano right by the sea, complemented by a special evening at the Porto Turistico Marina di Pescara.

Visitor Tips: Travel and Accommodation in Pescara
- The Auditorium Flaiano sits directly on the Lungomare Colombo seafront and is an easy walk from the city center
- Pescara has a well connected train station along the Adriatic coast, making arrival by rail a good option
- July is peak season in Abruzzo, so accommodation near the beach should be booked well in advance
- Evenings by the Adriatic can turn cool even after a warm day, so a light jacket is worth packing
