South Town Jazz Festival

The South Town Jazz Festival brings jazz to the town of Soustons, in the Landes, each year around the end of winter or start of spring, with an internationally minded lineup. It mixes ticketed concerts with free events, a rehearsal residency, a swing workshop, an exhibition and a cine-concert. The Big Band Côte Sud, formed in the early 1980s, is a regular fixture, alongside students from the Conservatoire des Landes and the Soustons secondary school's jazz program.
