Held at the Italian Cultural Center on Sunday September 24th, the Edmonton Guitar Show featured over 40 exhibitor booths representing luthiers, retailers, collectors, educators, guitar accessories manufacturers, and sponsors - filling the 11,000 square foot venue with guitar and guitar-associated goods and services.

This year's 2023 Edmonton Guitar Show event attracted over 1100 enthusiast guitar-hungry attendees.

Guitar Community, Camaraderie, Education and Shopping

The schedule featured performances from local musicians, presentations by luthiers and a guitar clinic presented by five time CCMA Guitarist of the Year Matty McKay. YouTuber Dan Clayton of the Fret Success Guitar Show captured the day's events, moderated interviews and guided presentations.

Proceeds from the show benefited Hull Services, an Alberta based firm that provides mental health and well-being services to children and youth, and their families.
