Launched in Sydney, October Mon 1st - Sun 7th 2007, was the inaugural Guitar Heroes: Guitar Fest, an exciting salute to the Guitar and Guitarists from all musical genres. Guitar Heroes: Guitar Fest featured profiled players from Rock, Metal, Country, Blues, Jazz, Funk and Classical. A hot mix of International and National Guitarists was included in this Guitar Celebration. Legendary Kahvas Jute members Bob Daisley and Dennis Wilson, and the Guitar Shaman from Oz Graham Greene, endorsed by Ormsby Guitars, were just some of the stars that came to Sydney Town for Guitar Heroes:Guitar Fest 2007.

Based on the Balmain Peninsula (the long term natural habitat of many musicians), Guitar Heroes: Guitar Fest involved live entertainment featuring Guitar Based Acts revolving around the Music Lifestyle Expo staged at Balmain Town Hall.

Renowned for their commitment to Live Music, Balmain-Rozelle Venues have long supported the creative art of the Guitarist. Venues such as the Cat and the Fiddle, Unity Hall, Balmain RSL, Bridge Hotel, Exchange Hotel, Commercial Hotel, William Wallace Hotel have all played their part in exposing and nurturing musical acts on the Balmain Peninsular. Acts such as the Hippos, Mighty Reapers, Backsliders, ForeDay Riders, Chasin’ The Train, Flood, Richard Clapton, Alex Lloyd, Mitch Grainger etc. have all moved through these venues on their musical journey.

The highly respected Sydney Classical Guitar Society kicked off the Guitar Fest with their Classical Guitar Showcase event at The Church, Darling Street, Balmain.

The Best Guitar Player Competition happened at The Bridge Hotel on the arvo of the Guitar Fest Sunday. Proudly sponsored by Aust Guitar Magazine with a huge prize pack on offer, Australia’s Best Guitar Player invited all guitarist’s to strut their stuff in this exciting all genre guitar comp.

Then, besides these fantastic events, there was the Guitar Fest entertainment at The Bridge, Exchange, Cat and Fiddle, Unity Hall Hotels and the Monkey Bar with hot guitarists ready to please the punters.
