Each month, the Swiss Jazz Orchestra’s concerts have a different theme: from Latin Night to Tribute Night to Groove Night to Gala Night, an event with VIP guests.

The concerts start at 8:00 p.m. and comprise two sets with a break in between. There is no need to make reservations and thanks to the financial support of sponsors, tickets are very moderately priced.
