Do you have a link with info on that festival?

Too bad I always have to work on satuday and sunday till noon. By the time I get there (2,5 hour drive) it wouldn't be worth going I'm afraid.

That is too bad about working on the weekend. Perhaps you can call in sick?

Not if you co-own a store (with my father).

I couldn't go to the Graspop festival this year either.

Yeah I guess that would not be so good to call in sick then!

I have not been here long so I don't know anything about the local jazz scene. Is there one? All I hear is 80s music and djs when I go out. I read that the North Sea Jazz fest is the largest in the world though.

Middelheim in Antwerp is also a great yearly festival.

I don't know much about the area around Rotterdam.
But here in Belgium there isn't much of jazz places to hang out.
Especially if you live in "rural" Belgian Limburg as I do.

Well there definitely isnt much jazz happening in Haarlem as far as I can tell. Maybe Amsterdam or Rotterdam. Oh well... looking forward to this weekend.
