This year’s tagline is ‘Celebrate Jazz in Diversity’, a fitting theme for a time of rising religious tensions and overall political turbulence in the nation.
Dewi Gontha, President Director of PT Java Festival Production has declared the JJF “a festival for all music lovers,” and believes jazz can resonate with music fans from all walks of life.
The festival will take place at the Jakarta International Expo centre (JIExpo) in Kemorayan.
