EJBF25 Programme Announced

The 2025 Edinburgh Jazz & Blues Festival Programme is LIVE!

From Friday 11 to Sunday 20 July, we present a genre-spanning celebration—from bebop to boogie-woogie, funk to soul, trad to techno, swing to searing blues-rock. There’s something for every musical mood in this year’s programme.

Check out the programme, or flick through our Digital Brochure.

Acclaimed American guitarist Julian Lage is the final name in our Queen's Hall programme, joining the previously announced gigs from world-renowned singer Curtis Stigers, Scottish trumpet star Colin Steele, American blues icon Kenny Wayne Shepherd, and Scotland's own corto.alto.

We are thrilled to welcome an incredible line-up of jazz and blues artists from Scotland and around the globe, including leading light of the British blues scene Elles Bailey, mesmerising New York-based singer Anaïs Reno, techno brilliance from Germany's LBT and New Orleans funk from Jon Cleary.

Tickets go on sale on Thursday 1 May at noon!
