Cultural programme

With more than 1400 artistic events to be organised, the cultural programme of the Polish Presidency has been one of the most ambitious projects to promote Poland since 1989.

Projects prepared by the Adam Mickiewicz Institute, in cooperation with Polish and foreign partners, will be presented in the most important galleries, theatres and clubs, and at the most important festivals in Brussels, Paris, London, Berlin, Madrid, Moscow, Kiev, Minsk, Beijing and Tokyo. The events will take place in such famous places as Bozar and La Monnaie in Brussels, the National Theatre and the Southbank Centre in London, Martin Gropius Bau in Berlin, and Teatro Real in Madrid.

The National Audiovisual Institute will oversee the implementation of the cultural programme in Poland. The main Polish cities where cultural events will be held include: Warsaw, Poznań, Wrocław, Cracow, Sopot, Lublin, Białystok, and Katowice.
Diplomatic posts and Polish Institutes will be especially active during the period of the Presidency as they will be responsible for the co-organization of more than 2500 events. The events are supposed to present Polish social and economic thought, history, literature, film, music, theatre, and visual arts to an international audience.
