For 42 years Barcelona has played host to an annual jazz festival. The festival takes place in venues all over town and you will need to buy individual tickets for each event – there is not one ticket that covers the whole event. Depending on your budget, you should be able to find something on the line-up to quench your thirst to listen to some live jazz music – venues vary from the grand Palau de la Musica to small smoky bars like Jamboree and Harlem Jazz Club.

Some of the best and brightest world music and jazz artists will be performing at this year's festival, including Jamie Cullum, Omar Sosa, Jaques Morelenbaum, Concha Buika, Richard Galliano, Peter Brötzmann Chicago Tentet, Paolo Angeli, Steve Wilson-Bruce Barth Duo, Lee Konitz-Dan Tepfer Duo, and JD Allen Trio.
