Overview

The 46th Leverkusen Jazz Days in November 2025 once again brought together international stars from the jazz, funk, world, and pop scenes in Leverkusen. Forum Leverkusen, Erholungshaus, and Scala served as the main venues; around 25,000 visitors attended over the approximately three-week festival duration.

In 2025, the Jazz Days once again confirmed their position as one of Europe's most important jazz festivals. The program spanned from traditional jazz to soul, funk, and pop, through to world music — a deliberately broad musical lineup that has shaped the festival for decades.

The mix of several venues with different characteristics (large hall, intimate theater, club) and a festival duration of several weeks made it possible again in 2025 to bundle an extremely heterogeneous lineup of artists under one brand. Tickets for the headliner acts were sold out months before the festival.
