The Festival Internacional Jazz entre Amigos is La Pedrera's annual jazz gathering in Rocha department, Uruguay, typically held around Semana de Turismo in spring. Its 22nd edition ran in 2025, drawing musicians from Argentina, Brazil, Chile, and Uruguay.
La Pedrera is one of the smaller, more bohemian beach towns strung along Uruguay's Rocha coastline, long favored by artists and surfers over the larger resort crowds of Punta del Este.
Reaching its 22nd edition in 2025, the Festival Internacional Jazz entre Amigos has become one of the longer-running annual music events on Uruguay's eastern coast, notable for its small-town, communal jazz entre amigos, jazz among friends, framing rather than a large commercial festival model
The event draws musicians across four countries, Argentina, Brazil, Chile, and Uruguay, into the small beach town of La Pedrera, and recent editions have paired concerts with a signature cazuela stew menu at host venues, tying the music programming directly to local hospitality traditions rather than treating food as a separate attraction
The festival is rooted in La Pedrera's identity as a bohemian
artist-friendly beach town within Rocha department
and its jazz entre amigos format emphasizes informal
friendship-driven musical exchange between Uruguayan and neighboring South American musicians over a large-scale commercial concert structure
