Ateliers King Georg

In 2019, the King Georg faced several challenges: the team was exhausted, the coffers empty, the facility was exciting but ailing and therefore required a thorough renovation by the authorities. The new operators were jazz crazy people from the circle of the friends' association of Cologne Jazz Supporters eV In addition to necessary and well-considered modernizations with the aim of maintaining the atmosphere of King Georg, they set a new musical focus: jazz, straight ahead, modern and more ... as it should be in a jazz club. The idea: from Monday to Thursday at least twice a week excellent live jazz concerts, on the "free" days free gigs by "Young Talents" of the music college for visitors. In addition, a varied program with literature and different styles of music on Friday and Saturday before the DJs start at 11 p.m. Opening it 6 days a week is brave - the King Georg team makes it possible through their commitment.
