Jazz at Lincoln Center Orchestra with
Wynton Marsalis
Wynton Marsalis is a legend, one of the most influential music personalities in the world—an outstanding trumpeter, composer, and ambassador of American culture, whose achievements span beyond the boundaries of jazz and classical music.
The Jazz at Lincoln Center Orchestra, founded by Marsalis, is justifiably considered the world's best jazz orchestra. Together with Marsalis, the Jazz at Lincoln Center Orchestra has toured extensively worldwide, but their visit to the Baltics and Riga in 2026 will be their first.
What makes the orchestra's visit and concert at the Pink Noise Riga festival unique is the fact that"Big Band Holidays", a special Christmas-themed music program arranged specifically for this big band, will be performed for the first time outside the US. In addition to the orchestra musicians, the concert will also feature outstanding guest vocalists, whose names will be revealed later.

Pink Noise Riga
Inaugurated in 2024 by the legendary jazz musician Branford Marsalis, Pink Noise Riga music festival offers a cocktail of world-class jazz, pop-rock, fusion, and contemporary improvised music. Festival’s main idea is to help Riga stand out & shine bright in Europe’s music scene.
In the 2026 season, the festival is replacing its summer format with two sessions: one in the spring (April 10-12) and one in the autumn (November 27-29). Tickets are already available for the concert of British jazz star, saxophonist Nubya Garcia, at Palladium on April 11, as well as for the Baltic debut of the legendary American musician Wynton Marsalis and the world-famous Jazz at Lincoln Center Orchestra, which will take place at the Dailes Theatre on November 29, 2026.
