The festival, one of Europe’s best-known and longest-running live music events, was canceled in 2020 due to the pandemic.
In April of this year, organizers announced plans for the festival’s return, with a limited capacity and its new stage.
Montreux Jazz Festival was established in 1967 by the late jazz connoisseur Claude Nobs. Over time, the event has hosted performances by many of the greats of contemporary music, from Prince to David Bowie, Nina Simone, Quincy Jones, Marvin Gaye, Elton John and others.
Tickets for this year’s fest go on sale from June 8 via the Montreux Jazz Festival website.
