The open air Django Reinhardt Jazz Festival is organized every year in May in his birth village Liberchies, municipality of Pont-à-Celles, Belgium.

The concept behind the festival combines a quality musical program with a multitude of creative, leasure and artistic activities about Jazz, guitars and Gypsies. This festival is a great family celebration of Django and his music.

There is also the annual Festival de Jazz Django Reinhardt held in the last full weekend in June in Samois-sur-Seine, France. The Samois festival is seen amongst the Gypsy Jazz community as being the definitive Django festival with people travelling from all over the world to attend. Django "pilgrims" also take time out to pay respect at Django's grave in Samois.

There are other festivals around the world to celebrate Mr. Reinhardt's music, such as DjangoFest in the western United States.
