15 years of Jazzfest: a musical walk through the Indische Buurt
Walk straight through the neighbourhood, past 6 locations with even more musical acts. Exactly where the walk stops, who you will hear there, and what the route is exactly, remains a secret for now. What is certain is that the route starts at Buurthuis De Archipel and ends at restaurant Elixer. Along the way, you will enjoy concerts, lectures, and surprising performances. Guides will walk with you and tell you about the (musical) history of the Indische Buurt. Between the locations is about a 10 to 15-minute walk, with room along the way for a story or a fun fact about what makes the Indische Buurt so special.
This anniversary year, Jonge Makers and Jonge Makers alumni are in the spotlight. During the Wandeltoer, you will hear the best of the Dutch young jazz scene, including the Jonge Makers of 2026 with Delaram Kafashzadeh, Anna Zavorina, and Carolina Gemmell.
Come to the dinner too
The programme continues until late in the evening. At 19:00, you can join a communal dinner at restaurant Elixer, after which the music continues with even more performances and an after-party. The dinner is a set vegetarian menu for € 17.50. Please note: you need to buy a separate ticket for this (see this page).
