Jazz Au Phare

Jazz Au Phare takes place in late July around the Phare des Baleines lighthouse, at the tip of Île de Ré, with concerts spread across the lighthouse, the beach and stages in the town centre. Run by a non-profit association, it brings together international jazz figures and French artists across a main stage and several off venues. The 2026 lineup included Marcus Miller, the Avishai Cohen Trio and Veronica Swift.
