To those who ask “Where can one listen to good Jazz in Istanbul?” Nardis gives the best answer: “Here!”
Nardis is a plain and cheerful venue located on the Galata Tower street, behind the old Genoese walls. Each performance of jazz oriented creative music can be enjoyed in a concert environment, yet with the comfort of a club in Nardis. The venue’s music focuses on mainstream jazz, but modern jazz, fusion, and ethnic jazz are also included. One day of the week is reserved for non-jazz creative works.
Nardis is located in the historically richest district of Istanbul: Galata. Before you stop by Nardis, we advise you to go up the Galata Tower, and even spend some time to enjoy the surrounding buildings and daily life. There is one thing to keep in mind while touring: Galata has long been a mosaic of different religions and languages with its Muslim, Greek Orthodox, Armenian, Assyrian, Chaldean, Jewish, Gypsy, Serbian, Albanian, Wallach, Genoese, Venetian, French and Levantine residents. Beyoğlu, the most known culture center of Istanbul, owes its creation to the upward expansion of Galata. Jazz would go well in Galata, which has been known as the “sailors’ district” in the past, resulting in its transformation into an entertainment center.
Be sure to make a reservation before you go to Nardis Jazz Club, as it has a 120 person capacity.
