The One Day Jazz Festival is one of the most significant jazz platforms in Central Europe. Since its founding in 2008, it has systematically connected the local and international scenes, creating a space for unique musical encounters of the highest artistic caliber. The festival is known not only for the quality of its programming but also for its emphasis on education, collaboration, and the long-term development of its audience.
Behind the festival is its founder, drummer and producer Martin Valihora, an internationally recognized musician who has performed on the New York scene and collaborated with several prominent global and European artists. He established himself on the Czech music scene through collaborations with many Czech jazz and pop artists and currently performs in Dan Bárta’s band Illustratosphere.
In 2026, the festival also made a significant entry onto the Prague music scene—through the Wanderers project, it launched its activities at the Hybernia Theatre as early as February, when Esperanza Spalding performed there to great acclaim. This concert marked the festival’s successful establishment in Prague and paved the way for other major projects within its program.
