Cordoba Guitar Festival

During the first fortnight of July, Cordoba becomes "guitar city". This festival in honour of the guitar has gained international fame thanks to the quality of the performers that take part, and it has become a point of reference for all guitar lovers and enthusiasts. 

Two different, yet complementary areas are represented during the event. On one side there is an educational part, with courses on guitar-making, as well as classical, flamenco and medieval guitar, and finally, composition. On the other side are the concerts and shows. Different stages host the broad, varied programme, where jazz, blues, folk, Celtic music and post-modern rhythms all play a part. All this is rounded off by conferences, round tables, exhibitions and record presentations.
