Repertoire, Style, and Musical Groups
The repertoire is free: whenever possible, performing a composition typical of the group’s place of origin is highly appreciated.
There are no mandatory pieces, only two songs to be performed together.
Participation in the Festival is open to all musical, vocal, and choral groups without age, repertoire, style, era, or musical genre limitations, with or without accompanying instrumentation.

Final Schedule
The definitive program and schedule will be announced by October 10, 2026.
It will specify the locations, performances, and times for each group, organized based on repertoire, style, and musical genre, as well as the selected stay period. The organization will also consider, within logistical limits, the requests and needs expressed by each group.
The organization reserves the right to modify the basic program, the allocation of events to days, or to designate alternative performance venues or events for organizational or force majeure reasons.
Each musical group is guaranteed participation in at least four performances and all guided tours included in the basic program.

Additional activities can include:
- Additional concerts and performances.

Travel/Transportation
Travel by bus is recommended. For those arriving by train or plane, all transfers can be arranged for the entire duration of the Festival, as the use of a bus is essential for both concerts and guided tours. Groups using the organization’s buses may be grouped and/or split to optimize the service, including sharing the same bus.

Non-musicians, such as friends, family, or other group members, can also attend the Festival under the same conditions.

Instruments
Groups may use their own musical instruments. A piano will always be available at performance venues.
