MareziJazz
Since 2011, the festival has also had a 2-day workshop for musicians. Approximately a dozen or more big bands play at each festival, along with the occasional after-party band. The festival also hosts more and more foreign bands, which mostly come from neighbouring Italy, as well as France, Czechia, Russia, Latvia ...
The festival organisers, the Marezige Youth Society, have also established the Slovenian Association of Big Bands, which connects the more active Slovenian big bands.
