Enjoy Jazz 2025

In autumn 2025, the 27th edition of Enjoy Jazz once again brought six weeks of international jazz stars, improvised music, and experimental avant-garde to the Rhine-Neckar metropolitan region. Under the artistic direction of Rainer Kern, the approximately 70 concerts were spread across about 30 venues in Mannheim, Heidelberg, and Ludwigshafen — from Alte Feuerwache and Capitol Mannheim to Karlstorbahnhof Heidelberg and BASF-Feierabendhaus Ludwigshafen.

As in previous years, the festival attracted a dedicated regular audience from across the region and numerous jazz lovers from beyond — one of the important jazz events of the German season.
