All accepted students receive a scholarship for their involvement in the 2024 Cello | Fresno International Cello Festival, with no application or participation fee required.

All participants are required to complete an application prior to the festival.

Anyone applying after October 1 may attend master classes, presentations, concerts, and open parts of the competitions, as well as participate in the cello ensemble, but will not be able to participate in any master classes or the concerto competition.

Due to the rapid growth of the festival, we are no longer able to offer housing for participants. Hotels near the Fresno State campus are listed below the application.
