Getting a babysitter can be tricky during July, but the Jazz Festival has you covered in that department. For 25 years now, its Jazz for Kids has been ensuring that nobody’s overlooked.

For five days at Søndermarken in Frederiksberg, a varied program will entertain both children and parents. Professional musicians will perform jazz and also present games, dance, storytelling and visual arts adapted to introduce children to the world of jazz at a young age.
