Free entry at KV Familie Montez/Hafenpark
Honsellstr. 7, 60314 Frankfurt
Jazz Montez is back to bring you another summer full of music and good vibes. From July 11 until August 24, we will present open air concerts and DJ sets on every Friday, Saturday and Sunday evening, starting at 6pm. Join us on the terrace of Kunstverein Familie Montez at Hafenpark in Frankfurt Ostend. The entrance is free!
Bring your friends and family, enjoy drinks at the bar, food from the open air kitchen and dance to the music. The stage will host powerful, genre pushing artists from around the world.
This year we will shed a spotlight on the local scene — the legendary Afro jam sessions at Friday midnight, special club events including the iconic Ballroom Night, and we’re also introducing a new, more intimate stage setup to support emerging artists. And naturally, we’ll be dropping DJ sets to close out the nights, featuring the best selectors from the city as well as from the international DJ scene.
Come together!
