Menaggio and Lake Como International Guitar Festival

The XVII edition of the Menaggio Guitar Festival was held from August 22 to 30, 2025, transforming Menaggio and Tremezzina into an international stage. Organized by the Cultural Association Onde Trasversali and directed by Sergio Fabian Lavia, the event featured concerts in historic villas, churches, and gardens overlooking Lake Como.

The 2025 program combined classical, flamenco, fingerpicking, jazz, and South American guitar music, with artists from various parts of the world and young talents. With its afternoon musical aperitifs and evening concerts, largely free of charge, the festival reaffirmed its role as a benchmark in the international guitar scene.
