The Festival

Founder address

Dmitry Kiselev

Crimea held its first Koktebel Jazz Festival in 2003. I was lucky to be its cofounder together with my Ukrainian friends Lilya Mlinarich, Vladimir Solyanik and Kirill Vyshinsky. Musicians and us, we all lived in tents and enjoyed fantastic jam sessions at the foot of the Kara Dag Mountain after the main program was over.

Since then, jazz has rocked Koktebel every fall. In August 2015, the 13th Koktebel Jazz Festival took place.

I am glad to welcome all the fans of its magic to Koktebel Jazz Party this year. It is truly delightful that the geography of Koktebel Jazz we have once launched is expanding and that old friends keep meeting here.

Welcome to the 14th jazz season in Koktebel!
