by the esteemed Muscicologist Maria de Mar Poyatos of the guitar collections and we'll be taking in concerts

Looking forward to our 25th annniversary in 2021 in our new home but here's a look at our 2014 edition before we lost our beautiful home at Bolivar Hall in 2016 where we began our journey as the 'London Conservatoires Bolivar Guitar Festival' in 1995. When ILAMS rescinded their support and cooperation in 2016 we continued with Guitarnation Foundation and now under full ownership of the name, nomenclature and intellectual property of London Classical Guitar Festival we invite enquiries to play, donate, partner or subscribe with us here:
