Currently, the festival is on hold since 2014, but it is planned for one day to happen again.
Programme
At first, the festival focused on encouraging young musicians and giving them the incentive to compose and perform their own music. It also brought more renowned musicians, but only in recent years has the festival's programme gained a distinctive consistency in terms of musical vision and quality.
Some of the Slovene artists and ensembles who have performed at Jazzgorje are Jure Tori, Ewald Oberlaitner, Kristina Oberžan Quartet, Čompe, Vasko Atanasovski, KvinTon, Orlek, Sedef, Chris Eckman, and Jadranka Juras. Of the foreign guests, one can name Simonne Zanchinni and Renzo Ruggieri from Italy, Otto Lechner from Austria, Martin Lubenov from Bulgaria, Che Ensemble Argentino from Argentina, and Renato Borgheti from Brazil.
