Jazz has deep roots in African culture, but the mix of cultures is what makes jazz so special! During BAZZ the Latin Tinge we will be exploring the Latin Roots of Jazz that were seeded back in the days in New Orleans.
We are super excited to welcome Breonna, Tyedric, Suela and Tomasa to Amsterdam for this exploration!

Where: Kompaszaal (KNSM-Laan 311, Amsterdam)
What: 3 days of workshops and full on inspiration
When: 10 - 12 October 2025
Bad Ass Jazz Festival is a place of sharing, learning, inspiring each other and celebrating human expression through dance. BAZZ celebrates the legacy of Jazz by bridging dance communities like Swing, its descendant Street dances or other Afro-Diasporic dances together. With a goal of softening the borders between these styles while acknowledging their evolution and differences.

This is both dance & music festival, so equal importance is on live music. So rather than music being here for dancers, we share the space equally with musicians and fuel each other with energy and inspiration!
With an intention to celebrate and acknowledge Jazz and it's legacy, at BAZZ you can also hear and party to variety of live & DJ music that falls into that spectrum, however, we will always centre Black American Old School Jazz!
Throughout the weekend you can learn from Bad Ass teachers and get down with amazing people to LIVE music by musicians who really know how to get people moving! In a charming city of Amsterdam, a monumental art nouveau building Kompaszaal will provide us with a space to learn during the day, and in the evening Kompaszaal will turn into a sweaty nightclub where you can enjoy live music covering the wide spectrum of genres from Jazz, Rhythm & Blues, Soul, Hip Hop, Funk all the way to Amapiano, Afrohouse, and much more - Basically everything that makes us pump the chest and shake that butt.
