Sting<\/strong>, Deep Purple<\/strong> and Lenny Kravitz<\/strong> are among the artists booked to play\u00a0the 2024 Montreux Jazz Festival, happening in Montreux, Switzerland, from July 5 \u2013 20.<\/span><\/p>\n

Deep Purple will headline the stage by the lake on July 8 with Alice Cooper<\/strong>. The\u00a0booking seems quite fitting considering the band’s iconic tune “Smoke on the Water\u201d was actually inspired by the 1971 fire that burned down the Montreux Casino; the title’s a reference to smoke from the fire spreading over Lake Geneva.<\/span><\/p>\n

Sting, meanwhile, will headline the same stage on July 17, with Kravitz headlining the night prior on July 16.<\/span><\/p>\n

Other artists booked for\u00a0the stage by the lake include\u00a0Duran Duran<\/strong> on July 20 and\u00a0The Smashing Pumpkins<\/strong> on July 7,\u00a0with\u00a0Dionne Warwick <\/strong>playing the\u00a0Montreux Casino on July 9. A complete lineup can be found at <\/span>montruexjazzfestival.com<\/strong><\/span><\/a>.<\/span><\/p>\n

Tickets for the festival go on sale to the general public on Friday, April 19.<\/span><\/p>\n

The Montreux Jazz Festival is the subject of a new documentary, <\/span>They All Came Out To Montreux<\/span><\/em>, which will have its world premiere at the Tribeca Festival on June 5-16 in New York City.
