The Red Sea Jazz festival 2009 – 23-26 August
August 14th, 2009This year festival is similar yet different from the previous ones – following the tradition of hosting world top notch jazz performers but also headlining young artists and Israeli groups. New venues and schedules mark a change as well
The Red Sea Jazz Festival (RSJF) was launched in 1987 as a four day international jazz festival with 9 concerts per evening, 6 clinics with guest artists and nightly Jam sessions. The festival is held yearly in the last week of August, between Sunday to Wednesday.
Every evening the festival starts at 19:00 with an open concert featuring the best Israeli young jazz groups. During four days, the festival will feature 3 different concerts in each of the halls, performed by 22 groups – 11 international and 11 Israeli – participating in the festival.

The concerts will be held in three venues: a new JAZZ CLUB of 1,000 seats around tables serving food and beverage, the HALL with 2,000 regular seats and the biggest ARENA with 4,000 seats, some arranged gradually overlooking the Red Sea.
The concerts schedule allows attending every day up to 4 performances out of 9.
