Please, fill registration form to participate in South Caucasus Showcase.
Kavkaz Jazz Festival is widely known in the South Caucasus region and abroad as a non-profit festival which promotes cultural dialogue, jazz education and promotion of young emerging artists. After 9 successful years and notable achievements as promotion abroad, collaborations and positive narratives in conflict states using jazz as a tool, we move forward and bring music and jazz industry authorities to engage and meet regional artists and industry actors at the spot.
This will help with the lack of information and communication between our region and European countries, networking will help to reach internationally known venues, promoters and producers to establish future partnerships and bring South Caucasian musicians to international platforms.
Tbilisi Music Forum and South Caucasus Showcase agenda will be added soon.
