Seize this opportunity!

This competition is open to all amateur or professional bands, and to all types of music, just as long as the guitar has the leading role.

We don't have a “style” or “genre” preference, as long as it sounds great! So... what are you waiting for?

Share the stage with some of the biggest names in music!

The 3 finalist bands will perform, one by one, as the festival opener on each of the first three days. We hope to provide you with the unique and privileged opportunity to play before an audience of musical connaisseurs, thus giving you the exposure you deserve.
