The 56th edition of the Montreux Jazz Festival is a return to the festival’s roots but also a step into the future. From 1 to 16 July, an elaborated music program across different genres will be presented across eleven locations. Nine of which are accessible free of charge, including the ibis MUSIC terrace, right in the center of the festival at the shores of Lake Geneva. A relaxed bar in the afternoon, the venue transforms into an intimate location with electro-pop performances in the evening and DJ sets at night. Top events to take place at the terrace include a concert by UK singer Sam Ryder on 6 July 2022. Sam achieved the highest chart position of a UK Eurovision entry in 26 years. Gigs from up & coming artists such as Breakbot & Irfane, Regard, and Synapson are among the insider tips of the festival. Every Thursday, the terrace turns into a silent disco.
ibis MUSIC is a global brand programme by ibis to unite music lovers and artists all over the world with a collective of up & coming artists performing live in ibis hotels and at popular festivals and events. As part of this year’s ibis MUSIC Global Tour, ibis and ALL bring some of these artists to Montreux to perform live at the ibis MUSIC Terrace.
For more than a century, the Fairmont hotel brand has been a synonym for the grandest of feelings and the backdrop for numerous musical events. The same applies to Fairmont Le Montreux Palace, which has been closely connected to the history of the Montreux Jazz Festival for decades. It is a meeting place for musicians and music lovers from all over the world, not only during the festival.
Members of ALL, Accor's complimentary lifestyle loyalty program, will find an exclusive venue to experience during the festival: the ALL x Fairmont Vinyl Bar. This lounge is open to ALL members and VIP guests only, offering various food and beverage options and unique cocktail masterclasses. In addition, the Vinyl Bar will host the curated collection of Fred Fatio, a Vinyl collector, who takes guests on a musical journey by showing them some unique pieces and the amazing stories behind. With its mission to provide members unique experiences that can't be purchased, ALL also offers a limited package tailored for the festival: The Limitless Experience. This package can be redeemed for 39,000 ALL Rewards points and includes two nights at the Fairmont Le Montreux Palace including breakfast, tickets for A-Ha at the Stravinsky Auditorium and Pierre de Maere / Iliona / Years & Years at the Montreux Jazz Lab. Additionally, guests will experience a DJ set on the ibis MUSIC terrace, dinner on July 1st and a cocktail masterclass with the Fairmont Le Montreux Palace mixologist, as well as a cocktail dinner at the Fairmont Vinyl Bar for two guests.
Another place to fully immerse in the atmosphere of the festival is the hotel's Montreux Jazz Café. Inspired by the eponymous festival, the café is decorated with memorabilia of festival founder Claude Nobs and invites visitors and guests to indulge in musical memories all year round.
