JazzIncubator is an event by and with young people. Here, young musicians take the stage, and it is students in 'Marketing and Management of Tourism Experiences' and 'Tourism Management' who organize it. In addition to the concerts being experienced live, they are also produced for TV by students at the TV school. The musicians come from all over Norway and occasionally from other countries, while the organizers and producers study at the Inland Norway University of Applied Sciences in Lillehammer. JazzIncubator has been a part of DølaJazz since 2003. Several of the bands have later appeared as established artists at DølaJazz and at other festivals.
