Friday Jazz on the quay

In the afternoon sun in front of the Black Diamond, there is Friday Jazz with free admission.

Stop by the Black Diamond when we present live jazz on the quay in front of the Diamond. You can buy snacks and cold refreshments at Madkartoteket's pop-up bar and enjoy the view from the waterfront while listening to some of the best established names and representatives of the exuberant Danish talent pool in the jazz genre.

NB: In case of bad weather (rain or wind), the event will be moved inside to the Diamond's beautiful Atrium with a view of the harbour. There is a limited number of seats, so arrive in good time.
