Jazzmandu

The mission of the Kathmandu Jazz Festival, popularly known as “Jazzmandu,” is to bring quality jazz to Nepal, transcend cultural boundaries, and spread the message of peace and compassion through music.

The annual festival began in 2002 and was founded by Chhedup Bomzan of The Jazz Upstairs Bar and Navin Chettri, drummer and vocalist of Cadenza. The Kathmandu Jazz Festival has successfully promoted jazz in Nepal and brought world-class musicians to audiences in Kathmandu. It enriches lives, promotes creativity, encourages the sharing of international sounds and ideas, pushes the limits and boundaries of musical expectations and nurtures the talents of Nepali musicians. Jazzmandu strives to make the festival accessible to as many people as possible by actively including free shows, educational school programs and workshops.
