About the show
Multi-Grammy® and Academy Award® winner Jon Batiste today announced that he will bring his boundary-breaking artistry to KOKO in London for a special four-night residency of exhilarating, diverse and concept-driven performances from 24th - 28th June 2026. The performances are part of the inaugural Jon Batiste World Festival, curated by Batiste and co–curated by Michael Mwenso.
Each evening of the residency will spotlight a distinct musical concept, underscoring the mastery of Batiste’s borderless artistry and collaborations - including a symphonic evening, a fan-driven “by request” performance featuring selections from across his entire catalogue, a night of communal song centred on songs of hope and change with special guests, and, for the first time, a live-band performance of Batiste’s jazz compositions from Disney and Pixar’s Soul, which earned him an Academy Award and a BAFTA Award.
