Jamiroquai – Live at Montreux 2003 is a DVD/Blu-ray of a concert performed by the British band Jamiroquai at the 2003 Montreux Jazz Festival. The DVD was released on 1 October 2007 through Eagle Vision, a distributor also related to other DVD releases of Montreux Jazz Festival performances, and the same distributor later published the HD Blu-ray version on 4 August 2009.[1]

While the concert had previously been bootlegged in whole by fans, this disc is the first official release of the concert's recording. While the DVD and Blu-ray features all of the tracks from the festival (including the notoriously rare "Shoot the Moon"), it also features a 12-minute live version of "Space Cowboy", recorded at the same jazz festival, albeit in 1995.

Most of this concert's songs are extended, a prime example being "Travelling Without Moving", which lasts for 3 minutes and 40 seconds on the album but 12 minutes during the concert. Such extended performances are common for the band's live concerts.
