In this, our tenth edition of Adelaide Guitar Festival, there’s much to be proud of. The festival builds on its success each year, and in 2022 we will welcome music fans and artists of all ages for performances, exhibitions, and Winter School; and On the Road is back again.

I’m incredibly excited to welcome you all to this year’s Adelaide Guitar Festival. After two years of international border closures, we’re thrilled to be welcoming our first artists from overseas since 2019.

We love it live!

They, alongside our superlative local stars, are set to fire up the depths of winter with emotion, spirit, virtuosity, and plenty of inspiration. From concert stages to remote communities, workshops to immersive instruments – the heart of this festival is all about guitar!
