The spirit of swing meets the waters of Istanbul’s Bosphorus

The Jazz Boat will again add fresh air to the city’s beloved Bosphorus through music. On a bright summer day, The Jazz Boat, with swing and entertainment at the helm, will weigh anchor from Kabataş Pier at 11.00 and cruise along the entire Bosphorus to Anadolu Kavağı. Norwegian Swing’it, known for its admiration of the golden age of jazz in the 1920s, Flapper Swing with its authentic melodies and joyful repertoire, and the swing ensemble Brassist will offer a unique Bosphorus cruise with their exuberant music.
