Are there any street festivals in July in Poland?

Question

I'll travel there with some friends and we would like to take into account local festivals. Anything that doesn't require understandind polish (because we don't) will do.

Answer 1

I don't know, which part of Poland you'd like to explore so I'll give you some info about events in different locations:

- 4-6.07. - Open'er Festival - Heineken music - in Gdynia

(http://www.opener.pl/index2.html) Tickets.

- 20.06 - 4.07. - BRUK Summer Festival - in Gdynia (north of Poland) - mostly hip-hop events

- 30.06. - 6.07. - Gdynia Sailing Days - in english http://www.gdyniasailingdays.com/english...

- 24-28.07. - Globaltica - World Culture Festival - in Gdynia(http://silverss.nazwa.pl/globaltica/glob...

- 1-5.07. - Etnofestival - in Malbork (also north) - to take part you need to fill in a form and send it to them

- 26th of July - 2nd of August - Mountain Bike Challenge (fourth edition) starting from Kudowa Zdrój (you'll find it on http://www.bikechallenge.pl/ also in english)

- 11-12.07. - Blues Express Festival - in Piła and Zakrzewo

- 4-12.07. - BRAVE Festival - in Wrocław (info in english http://www.bravefestival.pl/en/bf2008/in...

- and many many more...

Well, there's always something going on in the north (Tricity: Gdańsk, Gdynia, Sopot). Try surfing the net in english for events in Poland, north.

I hope it helps a bit.

Have a good time in Poland!
