Announcement of Guitar Battle 2026 Finalists

11.03.2026

We are delighted to announce the finalists of the Guitar Battle 2026 competition. According to the rules of the event, 10 participants qualify for the final, but this year the selection was particularly difficult – we received a large number of entries, and the artistic level of many guitarists was extremely high. At least a few other participants demonstrated skills that were definitely at the final level, which only confirms the growing level and popularity of the competition. We would like to thank the editors of Top Guitar for their reliable, substantive work and professional verdict in selecting the finalists. The final concert will take place on March 28 on the main stage of Guitar Expo 2026, where the finalists will perform in front of the audience and an international jury, which will select the winner of this year's edition. Although the first stage of the preliminaries has already been completed, it is worth noting that the prize pool for the competition is still growing, which promises an exceptionally exciting final.
