Sea Jazz L'Estartit

Since 2014, Sea Jazz l'Estartit has offered a space dedicated to jazz and its fusions in a natural setting at the Medes Islands, responding to a cultural need in the area.

The programming, carefully curated and of the highest quality, is constantly evolving, establishing the festival as a key event in the summer jazz calendar, thanks to its diversity and the partnerships formed with artists and international platforms. The venue includes a gastronomic area at the village of Molinet, located by the sea. Sea Jazz l'Estartit is committed to sustainability, prioritizing the preservation of the landscape and respect for the environment.
