TunisiaChellah Jazz Festival 2016: Celebrating fusion between European and Moroccan music
August 11, 2016
Share on 
This year, the 21st edition of the Chellah Jazz Festival will take place from 22 to 25 September in Chellah, Morocco offering new and varied artistic encounters between Moroccan and European Jazz musicians.
The 2016 edition will feature every night a performance by a European group in the first part of the evening and a Moroccan-European fusion in the second part, and will focus this year on offering entertainment “outside the walls” to give the opportunity to a wider audience to share this music.
Held annually under the theme “European jazz – Moroccan music”, the Chellah Jazz Festival is an EU initiative in partnership with the Moroccan Ministry of Culture, the Rabat-Salé-Zemmours-Zaërs Wilaya and in collaboration with embassies and cultural institutes of EU member states in Morocco.
Since its launch in 1996, the Festival has featured over 200 concerts between European and Moroccan musicians. (EU Neighbourhood Info)
