About Gajo Jazz Club

Gajo Jazz Club, on Slovenska cesta near the Grand Plaza, has been devoted to jazz since 1994 and is one of the city’s best-known nightspots. Over the years its small stage has welcomed names such as Clark Terry, Sheila Jordan, Barry Harris, Terence Blanchard, Mark Murphy and Arturo Sandoval, as well as Slovenian and regional players. Our advice: check the programme and book a table for the bigger nights.
