The festival programme is designed as a complete day-to-night experience. This page can hold the latest schedule while individual events are managed separately in WordPress, making it easy to update times, venues and programme details.
Opening Celebrations and Public Parade
The opening programme can introduce participating countries and ensembles through a public ceremony and colourful procession. A parade creates an immediate sense of occasion and gives audiences a first look at costumes, music and dance traditions.
Final routes, times and access information should be published here once confirmed.
Main Stage Performances
Headline stages can feature Polish ensembles, international delegations, folk orchestras, choirs and collaborative productions. Programming can balance high-energy dance with vocal traditions, instrumental music and storytelling.
Workshops and Demonstrations
Workshops invite visitors to participate rather than only watch. Sessions can include dance, singing, instruments, embroidery, paper cutting, woodcraft, folk art and traditional cooking.
Cultural Villages and Food Experiences
Cultural villages create space for participating groups to present costumes, objects, food, stories and informal performances. They also give audiences more time to speak with artists and understand cultural context.
Family and Youth Programme
Family programming can include craft activities, interactive performances, storytelling, child-friendly workshops and educational trails. Clear age guidance and accessibility information can be added to each event.
Evening Galas and Collaborations
Evening programmes can bring multiple groups together in larger productions, creating a festival atmosphere while encouraging artistic exchange across cultures.

Use the Events Calendar for individual listings, dates, times and venues as they are confirmed.
How the Programme Is Structured
The festival can be organised into clear strands so visitors immediately understand what is happening: main-stage performance, street and parade activity, workshops, cultural villages, family programming, food and craft, talks and special collaborations.
Each event listing can include its date, start time, venue, access information, age guidance, ticket or registration requirement and related artist profiles.
A Day at the Festival
A visitor might begin with a craft demonstration or workshop, move to a public dance performance, explore a cultural village over lunch, attend an artist conversation in the afternoon and finish with a major evening concert.
That variety helps different audiences build a festival day that suits their interests and energy level.
Programme Changes and Updates
Live festivals sometimes require changes because of weather, travel or production needs. The website should remain the central source for the latest programme information, and individual event pages can be updated without changing the wider design.
Visitors are encouraged to check the programme again shortly before attending.
