Hidén Harlekin Jazz Kissa is a long-standing jazz club in Zug, established in 1984 by Hans “Hidén” Hildenbrand. The venue is recognized for its intimate atmosphere and dedication to showcasing both established international artists and emerging talent within the jazz genre. It has hosted numerous notable musicians over its history, becoming a significant cultural hub for jazz enthusiasts in central Switzerland. The club’s name reflects its dual focus: "Hidén" acknowledging the founder, and “Harlekin” referencing the playful, improvisational spirit of jazz music alongside the traditional “Jazz Kissa” (jazz cafe) concept originating in post-war Japan – small venues fostering close artist-audience interaction.
