The period of the Skopje Jazz Festival is always a holiday

The period when the Skopje Jazz Festival took place was always felt as a holiday of music in Skopje. The Covid Crisis managed to reduce the number of attendees, but not the dignity and reputation of the most important music event in Skopje.

With high standards and strict principles, Skopje Jazz Festival is held from October 20 to 24 in the jubilee 40th edition.

In addition to the top performers performing on stage, the holiday will be complemented by the award for the best young Macedonian jazz musician, which is awarded by the Skopje Jazz Festival for the fifth year.

Filip Bukrsliev

This year the award will go to the exceptionally talented Skopje guitarist, composer and improviser Filip Bukrsliev. The award will be presented to him on Sunday, within the last day of the festival, at 17 pm in MKC - Cinema "Frosina".
