about the event
In 2026, the QuebraJazz Arts Festival presents itself under the theme Contraponto, with a multidisciplinary program in Coimbra. The text highlights the presence of dance with the Companhia Nacional de Bailado at Convento São Francisco, concerts with David Fray, the Gulbenkian Orchestra, John Hollenbeck, Jeffery Davis, Bianca Gismonti, and Manuel de Oliveira, as well as cinema under the stars, visual arts, and gastronomy. The initiative asserts itself as a festival of cultural resistance and of dialogue between opposites.
