Korpo Sea Jazz 23–25 July 2026
Since 1989, Korpo Sea Jazz has invited audiences to experience unforgettable moments in the unique landscapes of the Archipelago Sea. Over three days, concerts take place in churches, forest clearings, by the sea and at charming venues throughout the archipelago. This summer's Artistic Director is jazz legend Eero Koivistoinen, whose programme showcases the very best of Finnish jazz, from Verneri Pohjola to Teemu Viinikainen. As several concerts are held in intimate venues with limited capacity, we recommend booking your tickets well in advance. The festival also offers free concerts in the centre of Korpo, Nagu Guest Harbour and Korpoström, as well as its traditional late-night jam sessions.
Turku Sea Jazz 29 July–1 August 2026
At the turn of July and August, jazz takes over Turku's maritime surroundings. The festival's main street is the River Aura, connecting concert venues from Cathedral Park to the museum ships at Forum Marinum, from Ruissalo Boatyard all the way to the island of Seili. International highlights include legendary American pianist Joey Calderazzo with his acclaimed trio and British-Nigerian saxophonist Camilla George, whose music blends jazz with Afrobeat influences. Festival experiences also include live music aboard the Jazz Boat on the River Aura, as well as Saturday afternoon's concert aboard the 19th-century merchant ship Sigyn followed by a three-course Sea Jazz Dinner at Restaurant Tenlén.
Åland Sea Jazz 20–23 August 2026
Head to Mariehamn for a late-summer jazz getaway! Book your ferry, accommodation and concert tickets in advance and experience the unique maritime atmosphere of Åland Sea Jazz during the darkening August evenings. The programme features Vladimir "Vova" Shafranov, Sara Aldén, Simon Berggren Trio, Teemu Viinikainen and PEELA, among others. Alongside the concerts, the festival includes its traditional late-night jam sessions and Sunday jazz church service – the perfect finale to the Archipelago Sea Jazz summer.
Baltic Jazz next year: 9–11 July 2027

Next year, Baltic Jazz celebrates its 40th anniversary on 9–11 July 2027 – we look forward to seeing you again in Dalsbruk!
