3-day New Year Jazz Festival
3-day New Year Jazz Festival - Reschio Estate, Umbria
We loved our extraordinary New Year 3-day Festival and can’t wait to do it all again this year. Join us and catch the Reschio magic.
Intimate concerts with New York’s legendary Veronica Swift and Grammy award winner Steve Feifke backed by Daisy’s Big Band; the highlights just kept on coming over the 3-day festival. We were blown away by the 1920s glamour and elegant style of everyone who attended.
The Tabaccaia became a Casinò. Velvet Poggibonsi lampshades hung over vintage roulette wheels and gaming tables. Cigar smoke wafted through, cocktail shakers kept the rhythm with Daisy’s Speakeasy Swing Band. It felt as if we had stepped back into another era.
The next day, the Stable Fair was once again alive with music, chestnuts roasting, porchetta, drinks, make-up, headdresses - many with feathers and fripperies on a catwalk show. Even the horses put on an outstanding dressage display. Then the houses spilled out to the Ristorante Alle Scuderie and hotel guests too, all looking like stars in the heady days of the silver screen. After drinks, a fabulous feast and incredible jazz, no wonder Veronica Swift has been chosen as a headliner at Umbria Jazz this summer. Then, on the stroke of midnight, Krug Champagne flowed and dancing continued into 2024 with a famous DJ.
The incredible house party continued on New Year’s Day with live music. At last the chefs were out of the kitchen and behind the buffet cooking delicious Italian dishes, à la minute, for guests sipping restorative Bloody Marys.
We would love you to be at Reschio in your ostrich feathers and dancing shoes this year, book online before 30th June for the early bird special rate
