Every summer since 2010, the site of the Emosson dam has been entranced by the rhythm of frenzied notes. The Cosmo Jazz festival, created by André Manoukian, drops off its music-lovers at the Emosson chapel and captivates the audience with jazzy tones for day like no other in the heart of the Emosson site in Valais.
Cosmo Jazz - the festival at the Emosson dam site
Locations
The chapel
Just a few meters above the impressive Emosson dam is a small chapel perched on a kind of natural balcony
which offers another view of Mont Blanc. An ideal stage to host two concerts!
Argentière glacier - Lognan - Valais
An emblematic site for the festival, the Point de Vue of the Argentière glacier will be accessible
this year by the Plan Joran gondola
Vieux Emosson dam
Upstream of the impressive Emosson dam is the Vieux-Emosson dam at 2205 metres above sea level. At its
top, it offers a spectacular view and an ideal stage to experience these two extraordinary concerts and
the aerobatic show “Barrage Volant”.
