Mediawave International Film and Music Festival

Kazinczy u. 3-5.
Gyor, 9022 Hungary
+36-96-517-666

The MEDIAWAVE Festival begun in 1991, together with the new regime, although its actual organisation initiated unwittingly in 1990. The festival started out as a competitive film festival, although from the beginning, its programme has included jazz and ethno concerts and different trends of contemporary arts in greater and greater extent.

Today, the festival uses the title International Film and Music Festival, which indicates that it especially gives emphasis to these two genres. It is consistent with the fact that in the past few years, the festival has become one of the most significant jazz and ethno music festivals in Central East Europe, where 60-80 bands perform in a week, on 11 different locations of 5 countries.
