As the president of the pima Association, it is my honor to invite you to the first Varaždin International Guitar Festival, which will take place from February 20th to 22nd, 2026.

This project is not only significant for the City of Varaždin, Varaždin County, and the development of classical guitar culture in Croatia and beyond, but it also represents the realization of my lifelong dream.

With the help of my former role models—Antonio Rumenović and Moreno Vinceković—who are now my colleagues, I founded the pima Association, the organizer of this event. For the first time in Varaždin’s history, the festival will bring together some of the greatest names in classical guitar right here in our city.

I invite you to be part of this story, to join us in Varaždin, and to help us build the tradition of this festival together!
