10–12 July 2026 · Lake Como

Jazzsul Lago

When New Orleans jazz glamour arrived on the Italian lake.

The Weekend

Two nights. Two expressions.

Valeria is from the American South, where jazz doesn't play in the background — it plays through people. As friends, she and Paolo jammed to it. As partners, they dance to it. This weekend they bring it to their soon-to-be home on the lake and to a 12th-century monastery on Lake Como.

Friday · 10 July · Via Bellini 5, Moltrasio

White Night

In New Orleans, White Linen Night is a beloved summer tradition — the whole Arts District spills onto the street, everyone dressed in white, moving through gallery openings, live music and the warm July air. It began simply: wear white linen, stay cool, celebrate art and community.

We're bringing this spirit to the lake and to our new home — bare walls, empty rooms, full of possibility. On Friday night it becomes a gallery. You are the first guests, and we'd love you to leave your mark.

Saturday · 11 July · Villa Monastero Pax

Jazz sul Lago

If Friday is unity, Saturday is self-expression. In New Orleans, the streets are the stage — everyone dressed to the nines, no two looks the same, everyone welcome. That's the energy we're bringing to the monastery garden.

Jazz it up. Interpret the theme your way. Bonus points for a look with a story.

Per le donne

For the ladies

Your favourite long summer evening dress. Then add a little lagniappe — a little something extra: a silk scarf tied in the hair, around the wrist or at the neck. A brooch — vintage, inherited, or found at a market. A flower in the hair, fresh from the garden. Something that makes you smile and holds a special memory.

Per gli uomini

For the gentlemen

Summer party chic — light suit or blazer, open collar, pocket square with flair, a dash of sparkle somewhere or a lapel with some flower power.

Ladies, leave the stilettos at home. Y'all come dressed to dance.
