In a glittery outfit with a wild performance, Japan’s Nanami “Seven Seas” Nagura has won an international competition in Finland for the third time – becoming champion in air guitar playing. The organizers announced on Friday evening that she was the most successful contestant of all time.
The World Air Guitar Championships have been held since 1996. This time, 18 opponents competed in the Finnish city of Oulu. Second place went to Aapo “the Angus” Rautio from Finland. Third place went to last year’s winner, “Guitarantula” for France.
Competition as part of a festival
The World Air Guitar Championships are part of a festival in the city. Air guitar playing is accessible to everyone, the organizers explained on the website. You can start it regardless of gender, age, origin, sexual orientation or social status.
The organizers also want to set an example for peace with the competition – a keyword is #MakeAirNotWar, ie “Make air, not war”.
