Cultural events are scheduled across several Polish cities in late 2026. The Beskidy Poetry Festival is set to take place from September 17 to 19, featuring workshops, galas, and exhibitions in locations including Czechowice-Dziedzice, Chybiu, Bielsko-Biała, and Jaworzno.

In Bielsko-Biała, the SOUNDESIGN festival will focus on film music in late September. This will be followed by the 29th Henryk Mikołaj Górecki Polish Composers Festival, titled ‘Voices of the City’, from October 8 to 10. The latter event explores the musical history of the city and serves as a precursor to Bielsko-Biała’s designation as the Polish Capital of Culture 2026.
