Pol’and’Rock Festival (formerly Woodstock Festival Poland)

Pol’and’Rock is one of Europe’s largest free music festivals and a flagship event of the Great Orchestra of Christmas Charity. It combines rock, alternative, reggae, world music and a strong social ethos centered on tolerance, community and volunteer spirit. Beyond the main stages, it features meetings with public figures, workshops, NGO zones, and unique initiatives like the Academy of Fine Arts. Over the decades it has become a phenomenon of Polish culture, attracting massive crowds and fostering a sense of belonging that goes far beyond a typical concert experience. Its organisation relies heavily on volunteers, grassroots engagement and a mission-driven philosophy of “love, friendship, music.”
