 Apply and be part of the International Jazz in the Park Competition! A great opportunity is now available for the up-and-coming jazzy acts.

Application deadline: 1st of April 2019.
 

Why:
You don’t have anything to lose, there is no participation fee!
You will be promoted online on our website from the moment you applied.
The festival has 2 full days dedicated to the Contest on the Iulius Park Stage, so all the crowd and media will be there to see you.
If you are selected among the final 14 bands, you have the chance to perform a 30 minute concert in front of thousands of people.
We will provide you back line and all the technical support.
We will give you accommodation and meals for two days, and 250 euro for transportation/band. It doesn’t matter if you have a lot of experience or you are at the beginning of your carrier.

Back line: Will be supplied for every artist.

Jam sessions: Each night of the competition closes with a jam session, just like a light after-party. You are not obliged, but it’s recommended that you participate in the jam session, because of the possibility of interacting with the other bands and the audience of the competition.

Photo – Video rights: All concerts will be filmed and photographed by our crew and the material will be used for promotional reasons (aftermovies and posting on social media). However, if the materials will be solicited for other usage, the band will be asked for approval before any use of the materials
