July (historically the second / third week of July)

Polideportivo de Mendizorroza, Plaza de la Virgen Blanca and parallel venues in the historic quarter of Vitoria-Gasteiz
Format
International jazz festival with main concerts, parallel cycles in the historic quarter and a music industry meeting

Jazz Festival Vitoria-Gasteiz — known in Spain as Jazzaldia (a Basque word that combines jazz and aldia, "festival") — is one of the oldest and most prestigious jazz festivals in Europe, founded in 1977, and the cultural flagship of the Basque summer. Every July it brings together international jazz musicians, Spanish national jazz, critics, cultural attachés and a significant flow of cultural tourism, with main concerts at the Polideportivo de Mendizorroza and parallel cycles in the historic quarter.

For sponsors, brand-activation teams and hospitality delegations, the operational challenge is to coordinate merch with a public festival that holds its main concerts in a 6,000-capacity outdoor arena, runs parallel cycles in the historic quarter, brings together dozens of national cultural press and international jazz programmers and combines daytime industry meetings with evening concerts. The audience profile is jazz industry + cultural tourism, and most visitors are based in the historic-centre hotel block near the Plaza de la Virgen Blanca and the Catedral de Santa María.

The Madrid production hub handles the entire order and delivers by road (SEUR, Correos Express, DHL) to the named consignee in Vitoria-Gasteiz — sponsor's office in Madrid, Bilbao, San Sebastián or Pamplona, organisation offices near the Polideportivo de Mendizorroza, reference hotel near the Plaza de la Virgen Blanca or the team's office in Madrid. The B2B invoice is issued in EUR with 21% VAT added via FACe / SII (AEAT); for intra-EU clients with a valid VIES number reverse-charge applies without Spanish VAT; for UK and non-EU clients the invoice is issued without VAT citing the corresponding EU directive article.

Recommended merch mix for sponsors and delegations

Staff and welcome-team apparel

White shirts and 220 GSM polos in dark colours (negro, gris grafito, azul marino) with two-colour screen-print or embroidery of the sponsor's monogram, light blazers for the Plaza de la Virgen Blanca evening team, fine pashminas for the July night breeze at the Polideportivo de Mendizorroza, canvas aprons for the historic-quarter welcome booth and foldable raincoats for the Atlantic-influenced summer rain in the Basque Country.

Subscriber and audience giveaways

Hardback notebooks with the festival seal in bronze or silver, fine-tip pens engraved with the Mendizorroza motif, organic-cotton tote bags screen-printed with the trumpet silhouette, biodegradable enamel pins for the visitor pack, linen bookmark ribbons for the printed programme and reusable steel bottles with sober engraving — 200 to 2,500 units per edition.

Lead-capture and press-desk items

Compact power banks with discreet branding, USB hubs for the press workroom, foldable wireless chargers for the welcome team, notebook + pen sets with screen-print for programming delegates, jazz critics and national cultural press — 50–150 premium units per edition.

Production and delivery logistics in Vitoria-Gasteiz

The branded merchandise operation for Jazz Festival Vitoria-Gasteiz is usually coordinated between Madrid, Bilbao and Vitoria-Gasteiz: the Madrid production hub handles the entire order and delivers by road to the named consignee — sponsor's office in Madrid, Bilbao, San Sebastián or Pamplona, organisation offices near the Polideportivo de Mendizorroza, reference hotel near the Plaza de la Virgen Blanca or the team's office in Madrid. The usual delivery window is 24–48 hours with prior appointment, given that the cycle falls in mid-July and the AP-1 from Bilbao and the A-1 from Madrid carry significant cultural-tourism traffic on those days.

We keep reserved stock at the Madrid hub for recurring items — white shirts, notebooks and tote bags with generic screen-print — that we can produce and deliver in 7–10 working days. For pieces with custom embroidery (sponsor's monogram, limited-edition numbering) the window moves to 12–14 working days. For sponsors with special hospitality pieces (gift boxes, numbered sets with Rioja wine or Basque craft beer) we recommend closing the order 4–5 weeks before the opening concert.

The B2B invoice is issued in EUR with 21% VAT added via FACe / SII (AEAT); for intra-EU clients with a valid VIES number reverse-charge applies without Spanish VAT; for UK and non-EU clients the invoice is issued without VAT citing the corresponding EU directive article. Every delivery is confirmed with a signed delivery note at destination and, when the client requests it, with a photo of the material unloaded at the Polideportivo de Mendizorroza, the Plaza de la Virgen Blanca or the team's office.

Recommended ordering calendar

  1. 6–8 weeks before: close the product list, quantities per recipient and the marking method per line.
  2. 4–5 weeks before: approve physical or pre-production sample from the Madrid hub and validate the sponsor's monogram.
  3. 2–3 weeks before: close production, quality control and multilingual labelling (Spanish-English-French-German).
  4. Festival week: confirm delivery window, named consignee in Vitoria-Gasteiz and welcome-team schedule at the Polideportivo de Mendizorroza.
