45th International Accordion Competition 

with deep regret we inform you that due to the dramatic development of the coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic that has led to the cancellation of all public events around the world, even the Olympic Games, of course we are too forced to cancel the 45th Pula International Accordion Competition for the year 2020. 

Respecting first and foremost your months long artistic preparation for the competition, as well as complete efforts to organize your arrival and stay in Pula, and long tradition of the event, we have delayed the decision to cancel the competition to the maximum. We have very fundamentally considered various options for postponing the competition and of course in the same time followed the development of the situation, however, we came to the conclusion that due to the complexity of the preparations for both organizers and competitors, and in the same time the uncertainty of the further development of the coronavirus pandemic, the only reasonable decision is to completely cancel the competition for this year.

We hope for your understanding.

Stay healthy, we are looking forward meeting you all in Pula in 2021.
