Originally the jazz of Marciac was just a few days of entertainment, but as more and more people discovered it, its popularity has grown and now the Jazz of Marciac has become a big international festival taking place each year over 17 days and featuring many big-name artists from around the world. It takes place over the first 2 weeks of August each year. At oher times of the year Marciac still has lots to offer to Jazz and music enthusiasts as there are jazz performances most weekends. |
