What's On - Dundee 2026 Jazz Festival

The official countdown to this November starts right here in Dundee.

To celebrate launching our 2026 festival programme (11–15th November), we’re taking over CANAS for a full day of live music, local food, and great company.

We’re here to champion Scotland’s jazz scene from the ground up, shining a light on brilliant emerging talent alongside established local voices. Whether you’ve been listening to jazz for decades or you’re just looking for a solid Saturday out with the kids, there’s a spot saved for you.


Launch Day Schedule
1:00 PM – 3:00 PM | SCuba

Led by Dundee's Ricky Linn, SCuba kick off the day with Salsa and Cuban rhythms and great improvisation.
