2025 Buffalo International Guitar Festival

The Buffalo International Guitar Festival is a community-oriented event that focuses on cultural enrichment and educational opportunities for guitarists of all ages in the Buffalo community and beyond! After the tremendous success of the inaugural edition in 2024, the festival returns to the wonderful facilities on UB’s North Campus. The event highlights the existing excellence of musical culture through the guitar in the Western New York region and attracts guests and participants nationally and internationally. The festival is organized in partnership with Guitar Reach Buffalo and the UB Department of Music (College of Arts & Sciences) in collaboration with UB Asia Research Institute, UB Center for the Arts, and UB Guitar Club.
