Tourism
Gent Jazz Festival’s recent collaboration with the nine museums in Ghent, your Gent Jazz Festival ticket will allow you to visit one of those museum for free.
By doing this they want to improve the interaction and communication between Gent Jazz Festival and the museums in Ghent and also motivate festival visitors to pay a visit to the participating museum.
The concept is very simple: each Gent Jazz Festival ticket is also valid for one museum entry to the collection one of the participating Ghent Museums. This visit is possible from the time you’ve visited Gent Jazz Festival until August 31, 2011.
