Cavatina Guitar Festival is an event that attracts guitar lovers not only from Poland, but also from abroad. The fourth edition of the country’s most guitar-focused festival is just ahead of us — a festival that fully showcases the diversity and versatility of this instrument. Save the date: May 22–23, 2027!
The slogan “All Faces of Guitar. One Festival” perfectly captures the spirit of the event. During the festival, we present the guitar in every possible role — from a leading instrument commanding the audience’s full attention, to a subtle yet indispensable companion to other instruments, without which many compositions would lose their character and emotional depth.
The guitar can be the solo hero of the stage, but also the quiet foundation of a band’s sound — binding the rhythm together, creating atmosphere, and giving music its unique color. From classical compositions and jazz improvisations to powerful electric sounds, the festival demonstrates just how versatile and unconventional the guitar can be, and how strongly it influences the final sound of music.
