Word of thanks

Time flies! The 11th edition of the Twents Gitaarfestival is already behind us. We are very happy to look back on yet another successful edition of our festival!
With beautiful concerts and lovely weather, of which the latter benifitted the open air stage greatly!

Even after eleven years we the high level of the competition still amazes us. The addition of chamber music categories in the competition we see as an enrichment and great success!

All being said, we would like to sincerely thank the artists, sponsors, participants, visitors, teachers and volunteers for again making this festival possible!

See you next year, May 25th until May 28th , with, amongst others, Ricardo Gallen!

Yours sincerely,

The Board
