- Check the club’s event calendar in advance; concerts run mainly in the autumn and winter season and not every night.
- Arrive 20–30 minutes before the music starts to find good seats, especially if you want to sit close to the stage.
- Bring a payment card and some Danish kroner, as smaller venues sometimes use simple payment setups for bar and entrance.
- Eat beforehand or plan a meal nearby; the club focuses on drinks and music rather than full food service.
- If you are sensitive to sound, consider light ear protection; the space is small and the music can feel very close.

Discover more about Riverside Jazz Club
A riverside living room for jazz lovers
Riverside Jazz Club is one of those places that feels more like a friends’ hangout than a formal venue. Set close to the water in Nykøbing Falster, it is small, low-key and immediately welcoming, with a compact stage at one end and tables drawn close enough that you are never far from the musicians. The emphasis here is on genuine live music rather than showiness, creating an atmosphere where you can settle in, sip a drink and let the evening unfold at an unhurried pace. The club’s size is part of its charm: you hear every nuance of a solo, every brush of the drummer’s snare, and you can clearly see the interplay between the musicians. Conversations murmur between sets, but once the music starts, attention naturally shifts towards the stage, giving performances an almost private-concert feel.Volunteer spirit and a passion for jazz
Behind the bar and at the door you will often find local volunteers who keep the place running for the love of jazz rather than profit. This gives the club a community feel; many of the regulars know one another, yet newcomers are quickly drawn into the fold. The mood is relaxed and unpretentious, and the focus stays on creating an enjoyable evening rather than strict formality. Over the years, the club has built up a strong network of Danish bands and international guests. The program typically runs through the autumn and winter season, when indoor music nights feel especially inviting. Each concert is a one-off event, so the night you choose will shape your experience, whether that’s swinging standards or more modern arrangements.From swinging standards to Nordic interpretations
Musically, Riverside Jazz Club covers a broad spectrum. One night might feature traditional New Orleans–inspired tunes with banjo and clarinet, the next a tight modern quartet exploring Nordic jazz harmonies. Visiting groups from elsewhere in Denmark and abroad bring their own flavour, from energetic gypsy-swing style to laid-back cool jazz. Improvisation is central to the experience: solos stretch, band members exchange grins across the stage, and familiar melodies are reshaped in the moment. Even if you are new to jazz, the rhythm and energy make it easy to engage. The intimate setting lets you notice subtle details, such as the way a bass line anchors the room or how a trumpet solo lifts the mood.Atmosphere, drinks and simple comforts
The décor is straightforward and cosy, with chairs and small tables gathered close to the performance area and jazz-related details on the walls. Lighting is usually subdued, putting the musicians under warm spots while the audience relaxes in softer tones. It feels casual enough for jeans and a sweater, yet special enough to make the night feel like an occasion. A small bar serves drinks at fair prices, often including classic beers, wine and simple spirits rather than elaborate cocktails. There is typically no full kitchen, so the emphasis is on drinks and conversation rather than dining. Many guests have a drink in hand throughout the set, adding to the sense of a shared evening rather than a formal concert hall experience.Planning your evening at the club
Riverside Jazz Club usually operates on selected dates rather than daily openings, often on weekends during the winter half of the year. Each concert has its own start time and entrance fee, which tends to be modest compared with larger city venues. Seating is limited, so arriving with time to spare is wise if you prefer a spot close to the stage. Expect to spend most of the evening here: typical concerts include several sets with a break in between, giving you time to stretch your legs, refresh your drink or chat about the music. Whether you drop in alone, as a couple or with a small group of friends, the scale of the club makes it easy to feel part of the room, and you leave with the sense of having tapped into a local cultural tradition that is very much alive.Iconic landmarks you can’t miss
