Boilerplate New Tide Festival
On Friday, March 6, and Saturday, March 7, 2026, Amare will present the very first edition of New Tide Festival, a brand-new jazz festival that brings together tradition and innovation and is inspired by the spirit of legendary trumpeter Roy Hargrove. The festival brings a powerful and diverse lineup to The Hague and celebrates both the rich tradition and the new energy of jazz.
New Tide Festival is an initiative of Amare in collaboration with programmers Chelsea Pachito, Tom van der Zaal, and Toine Scholten. The first edition of the festival has been jointly curated by Amare and the programming team.
