COSMOJAZZ TIPS
CosmoJazz tips
The concerts in altitude are FREE but access to sites with lifts are not. It's best to get to the sites with the lifts well in advance. Save time and avoid queues by buying your passes online at montblancnaturalresort.com
Our partner, Mont-Blanc Natural Resort, is offering a discount on the purchase of your Festival pass. Please check back soon to find out more about these offers...
TRANSPORTS - COMING TO THE FESTIVAL
Use public transports
In the interest of everyone, we ask all festival goers to help us ensure the fluidity of circulations, favoring public transport and car-pooling.
If you come by car to the concert venues, car parks located at the bottom of the lifts can be quickly saturated. For this reason, we recommend you to come by bus or train.

RECOMMENDATIONS
METEO & ENVIRONMENT
In altitude, the weather is unpredictable and changeable. Even in summer it is good to bring warm and waterproof clothes. It is also strongly recommended to bring sunglasses, hats and suncream.
Let the music play, not the rubbish!
Let's preserve the natural environment and limit our impact!
We've always asked everyone to respect the environment in which the concerts take place, to dispose of their own rubbish and use the bins provided, not to throw cigarette butts on the ground, and to keep the site clean and respect safety regulations. Thank you all!
