“Red Rock and Blues,” “Time in Jazz,” “The boundaries between Sardinia and Jazz,” “Narcao Blues”, “European jazz exp” to quote the most familiar names. Musical events like these have been going on for several years now, usually during the summer season in sardinia.

The jazz and the blues are the protagonists in Sardinia together with other groups to enliven the evenings of different reviews. There are so many tourists (and Sardinian people as well) enthusiasts as well as curious, who move from one location of the island to another in order to attend these events. There are those who decide to take part in a single concert spending the day in the location. There are those who’d rather choose to spend more days in the location where concerts are held. Many people who choose to spend their vacations in Sardinia, spend most of the day on the coast and spend their time almost exclusively to relax by the sea and the beautiful beaches and the sea that Sardinia offers.

Many others want to know the rest of the island, the hinterland, hidden and authentic. The other Sardinia, the most beautiful. It is possible to find places very different among them, rich and suggestive for their unique natural and cultural features.

A real opportunity to know a beautiful area of the sardinian island, to taste the flavors, fragrances, colors and especially the sounds, Time in jazz, the festival of jazz music conceived and organized by the famous Sardinian trumpeter Paolo Fresu. It is surely one of the most renowned in Sardinia. The concerts are held in unusual and fascinating frames, in the mountains, near lakes, in front of rural churches, in small squares of towns or in locations such as the regional museum of wine.

It is difficult not to be kidnapped and involved in the music of these places. The atmosphere is unique and the simultaneous presence of natural scenery, musical notes and people is magical.

The festival is held in the second week of August in Berchidda, historical region of Logudoro in the border with Gallura, in the central-northern Sardinia. The town, clinging on the slopes of Mount Limbara, is surrounded by woods and vineyards of giogantinu and vermentino, immersed in the mountains near the lake Coghinas. The area has a discrete quantity of accommodation facilities for those who want to stay close to places of Time in Jazz, of course, booking well in advance considering the amount of requests.

In Berchidda and in the neighboring towns such as Pattada, Monti and Oschiri there are some hotels, bed and breakfast and farm houses as well. A few kilometers away are located coastal renowned location as Budoni, San Teodoro, Olbia and the Costa Smeralda with Porto Cervo and Porto Rotondo.

These are locations with lots of facilities where it will be certainly easier to find a place to stay. San Teodoro, in particular, offers many real possibilities of accommodation to suit all tastes, residences, hotel, camping and a large quantity of houses for rent.
