The Cabarete Jazz Festival 2024 returns with a completely renewed proposal, promising to be one of the most outstanding cultural events in the Caribbean. Taking place from November 1st to 3rd on the iconic beach of Cabarete, this festival brings together great international and local artists, creating an unforgettable experience for music and tourism lovers.

A Legacy of Jazz in Cabarete
With over 20 years of history, the Cabarete Jazz Festival has become an unmissable event in the cultural calendar of the Dominican Republic. Natalie Ruiz Casado, director of the festival organization, highlights the importance of this event in the region:
"Cabarete has always had a legacy of jazz... the beach of Cabarete is the perfect setting for great artists of this genre to gather at sunset, showcasing a part of the Dominican Republic through art and culture."

"This year, the festival presents a great opportunity to position Cabarete as a cultural and artistic destination, beyond its fame as the city of wind and waves."

A Lineup of Must-See Artists
The 2024 festival will feature performances from internationally renowned musicians such as Arturo Sandoval and Paquito de Rivera, icons of Latin jazz, as well as the Argentine band Escalandrum, which will bring a unique fusion of tango and jazz.
There will also be space for local talent, with performances by artists such as Letón Pé, La Boba Band, and Pavel Núñez, who promise to delight the audience with a mix of funk, jazz, and merengue jazz.

"We have Escalandrum, coming for the first time from Argentina... and also Letón Pé, a great emerging Dominican artist, who will reimagine her hits in funk jazz," says Natalie Ruiz Casado.

Dates, Venue, and Tickets
The Cabarete Jazz Festival 2024 will take place on November 1st, 2nd, and 3rd on the spectacular beach of Cabarete, the perfect spot to enjoy music while watching the sunset. The official venue of the event will be Hotel Villa Taina, where tickets will be available during the three days of the festival. Pre-sale tickets will start on October 1st, offering a unique opportunity to secure your spot at this music celebration.

Cabarete: Much More than Sun and Beach
While Cabarete is known for its water sports offerings such as kitesurfing and windsurfing, it has also become a destination with a strong focus on sustainable tourism and holistic well-being. As Natalie Casado mentions:

"Cabarete offers a holistic lifestyle... it's very pet-friendly, a place where you can walk, practice water sports 365 days a year, and we even have a recycling center for waste management."

"Additionally, the town boasts a rich international gastronomic scene, with restaurants offering everything from Italian to Mediterranean cuisine, all with spectacular views of the sea and its protected lagoon, a natural treasure that adds value to this tourist destination".

How to Get to the Cabarete Jazz Festival 2024
Cabarete is strategically located on the north coast of the Dominican Republic and is easily accessible from several international airports:

• Gregorio Luperón International Airport (Puerto Plata): Just a 30-minute drive away.
• Santiago International Airport: Approximately 2 hours away.
• Las Américas International Airport (Santo Domingo): About 3 hours and 20 minutes by car.

Thanks to the improvements in the region's road infrastructure, traveling to Cabarete is now easier than ever. The newly renovated tourist and Jamao roads ensure a comfortable and safe journey from Santo Domingo.

A Unique Experience in the Sand
What makes the Cabarete Jazz Festival truly unique is its natural setting: the beach. Imagine enjoying the best jazz music while watching the sunset, barefoot in the sand, with the sound of the waves as your backdrop.

"This is the first time it's being held on the sand... take off your shoes and come barefoot to watch the sunset with great music," invites Natalie Ruiz Casado. This event promises to mark a turning point in Cabarete's cultural history, establishing itself as a landmark in the musical scene of the Dominican Republic.
