Festival 2021

Whilst many feared that classical guitar is turning into a peripheral instrument in the Netherlands, DGF moulded a place for the biggest guitar happening in the country – Guitar Concerto Competition & Festival. The success of the first two editions were unimaginable: nationwide guitar lovers packed the halls of every concert; competitors and students coming from more than 20 countries joined the Festival and most generous host families offered them all a home – it was a remarkable triumph of the guitar community! Of course, during these corona-times our festival can not be organized in the exact same way as before, but instead of seeing this as a blockage, we see it as an opportunity to grow and to be creative with all the possibilities that there are available! Join us abetween 3rd – 7th of March 2021 for Groningen Guitar Competition & Festival both live in Groningen and online for a week full of guitar, concerts, competitions, GuitarEXPO…and all the things you love about guitar!
