Le Touquet Winter Jazz Festival accommodation

The Winter Jazz Festival, jazz in the heart of winter

Every year in February, the Winter Jazz Festival takes over the Palais des Congrès in Le Touquet-Paris-Plage, on avenue de l'Hermitage. For almost a week, concerts follow one another in several halls, from the big nights in the Salle Ravel to more intimate sets in the Boîte de Jazz, with late-night jam sessions and shows for children.

The tourist office has announced the 2027 edition for 23 to 28 February 2027. Artists announced include Ibrahim Maalouf with Hiba Tawaji, Dee Dee Bridgewater and Natalie Dessay (programme subject to change). Some tickets are sold only at the tourist office, and a pass covers all the main concerts, so look into it early. Other winter events are in our events calendar.

Why stay at Villa Mon Étoile for the festival

• The Palais des Congrès is under 1 km away: about a twelve-minute walk, with no parking to find before the show and no driving afterwards.
• The beach is 300 m away and rue Saint-Jean 200 m: an afternoon stroll along the seafront, dinner out before the concert.
• A proper, cosy 55 m² home with a living room, a large wooden table and an equipped kitchen: perfect for a quiet nightcap, keeping the noise down after 10 pm.
• For a festival with family or friends, book both apartments: up to 8 guests, 4 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms.
• 8 Gb/s fibre wifi and a TV for slow mornings.
• Travelling with a baby? Everything is ready: high chair, travel cot, baby bath, child-friendly tableware, toys and books.

Villa Mon Étoile is a 1920s Art Deco house, listed among Le Touquet's “remarkable villas”. Hélios is on the first floor and Cassiopée on the second, where the main bedroom opens onto a south-west-facing balcony.

Book early for festival week

February is French winter school holiday time, and the festival has a loyal following, so town-centre accommodation is booked well ahead. Pick your concerts, then secure your nights on our booking page (two-night minimum).

Booking direct gets you the best price, lower than on Airbnb. Check-in is from 3 pm and check-out by 11 am; early check-in and late check-out are offered subject to availability, handy if your last concert is on a Sunday afternoon. All the perks are on booking direct.

Our tips for a winter jazz break

• Pair two or three evenings of concerts with days outdoors: the beach at low tide, the forest, the lighthouse. Out of season, the resort is calmer and the beach almost yours.
• Pack warm clothes and a windproof jacket: in February the sea breeze is brisk on the promenade.
• With children, look out for the afternoon family shows.
• For more ideas, read our guide to Le Touquet in winter.

Charles's tip: in the late afternoon, walk to the end of the promenade to watch the sun set over the Channel, then head back to the villa to change: the Palais des Congrès is just a few streets away.
