Since 2010, the Manufacture has supported the development of the Montreux Jazz Digital Project together with the Claude Nobs Foundation and the Swiss Federal Institute of Technology in Lausanne (EPFL). This complex project has enabled the digitalisation, restoration and preservation of the Festival’s entire sound archives, which are acknowledged by the UNESCO as part of its “Memory of the World.”
In 2019, Audemars Piguet went one step further by joining one of the most respected music festivals, where legends are born, as Global Partner. Situated at the junction between heritage and innovation, Audemars Piguet and the Montreux Jazz Festival revere traditions, while anticipating the world of tomorrow. This partnership is the perfect interplay of two forward-thinking organisations driven by a common desire to nurture human talent and create exceptional moments.
Craftsmanship, character and connection are at the heart of the Montreux Jazz Festival’s philosophy. These three Cs unite us to Audemars Piguet, whose craftsmanship and unique character bring about exceptional encounters and connections.
Mathieu Jaton
Chief Executive Officer, Montreux Jazz Festival
Global Partner of the Montreux Jazz Festival since 2019, Audemars Piguet is back for the 58th edition, from 5 to 20 July, 2024.
The Audemars Piguet Parallel event returns this year with an all-electronic line-up. Launched in 2022, this series of free musical immersions on the fringes of the Festival offers a moment lost in time by giving select artists the opportunity to perform in unexpected locations on the Montreux Riviera.
Held in a secret venue, the Audemars Piguet Parallel experience reflects the shared commitment of the brand and the Montreux Jazz Festival to foster talent by giving artists the opportunity to push their limits and share their passion with the public.
For this new edition, three festive electronic artists will take the stage on July 17: the Swiss trio Mont Rouge, Brazilian sensation Mochakk and South-African afro-house legend, Black Coffee.
All three artists share an eclectic approach to music, curating different genres to create fresh hip beats. The unusual location will be revealed to ticket holders at the last minute for an unforgettable immersive experience. This year again, tickets will be up for grabs at the Audemars Piguet Parallel space within the Festival in zone D, Place du Marché, and via the MJF’s Instagram.
Experience the one-of-a-kind live performance of Montreal group THe LYONZ, organised in collaboration with the Montreux Jazz Festival. Recorded in the mountain scenery of Montreux’s heights, the complex scenography puts this live concert in the footstep of the creative challenges the brand set to emerging music artists as part of its miniseries 180, in which the Canadian duo took part.
