Our goal is to nurture the talent of young artists and to offer Esmeraldas a festival comparable only to the very best around the world.

The FIME Mission

The International Music Festival of Esmeraldas promotes creative learning and music-making at the highest level. 

Music is a vehicle for social change, a basic right for every person, and does not recognize social stratification. FIME's promise is to invest in the cultural growth of Esmeraldas by bringing together internationally renowned artists and young musicians from all countries to fill the city with musical performances.

All masterclasses, concerts and lectures are open to the public and offer 100% free admission.
