It represents a kind of overview of guitarists both from the city of Varna and from the country. The event is not competitive. The aim is to popularize the tool and introduce it to a wider range of participants.
All honorees perform in a closing concert at the close of the event.
The festival takes place at the end of May and has a concert program in which professional guitarists and ensembles from the country and abroad perform recitals for the Varna audience and festival guests.
