The 30th edition of the Jewish Culture Festival in Krakow will be held June 26th and July 5th, 2020.
The festival embraces a vast and diverse array of events exploring and presenting different aspects of Jewish culture. There is of course a strong emphasis on traditional Polish and Cracovian Judaism, but the event organizers also focus on modern Jewish culture as it has developed in Israel and the United States. A key part of the festival is music; with live concerts every day and major acts both opening and closing the festival. Here you can experience klezmer and other traditional forms of Jewish folk music with strong ties to the region. In addition to concerts, there are exhibitions, lectures, workshops, book launches and even introductions to Jewish cuisine. On the closing night there is a huge televised concert on Szeroka Street with an audience of many thousands.
