12 Points Festival 16 - 19 February, 2012 - Casa Da Musica, Porto, Portugal


16 - 19 February, 2012 - Casa Da Musica, Porto, Portugal
Our small but beautifully formed festival takes place in early spring, when twelve bands are selected from hundreds of online submissions. 12 Points festival lasts four days and alternates between Dublin and partner cities, the last of which was Stavanger in 2010, the next being Porto in February 2012.

With our compact size, it’s a unique opportunity for artists to get to know each other, create lasting friendships and networks, and give their absolute performance best before an enthusiastic local audience and a delegate programme of media and industry professionals. There is no better festival to experience the breadth, energy, ambition and diversity through which young European musicians are making the jazz of tomorrow.
