Ravi Coltrane live in Rotterdam

Experience Ravi Coltrane live on July 12th

Ravi Coltrane, son of legendary saxophonist John Coltrane and Alice Coltrane, will perform at Rotterdam Ahoy in Rotterdam, Netherlands on July 12, 2026. His musical style is deeply rooted in post-bop jazz, yet incorporates elements of avant-garde and modal jazz, often characterized by intensely lyrical saxophone playing and sophisticated harmonic exploration. While honoring his parents’ legacy, Coltrane has developed a distinctive voice marked by both power and sensitivity. He frequently leads ensembles featuring both established and emerging musicians.

Rotterdam Ahoy is a large multipurpose indoor arena located in Rotterdam, originally opened in 1971. It has undergone several renovations and expansions; a significant rebuild completed in 2010 resulted in increased capacity and modernised facilities. The venue is well-known for hosting a diverse range of events including concerts by internationally renowned artists, sporting competitions – notably the Eurovision Song Contest in 1970 and 1980 – and large-scale conventions. Its flexible configuration allows it to accommodate audiences ranging from several thousand to over 10,000 depending on the event setup.
