Montreux Jazz takes over the lakefront of a small Swiss resort town for over two weeks, with paid concerts in halls by the water and free stages, bars and late-night jam sessions along the promenade. Despite the name it has long booked soul, rock and pop as well as jazz. Founded in 1967, it has an archive of recorded concerts that is listed by UNESCO, and many visitors come only for the free side.
