Cultural events and festivals continue across Poland and Lithuania. In Poland, recent activities included theatrical productions exploring post-war poetry at the Sieradzkie Spotkania Teatralne festival and the 50th anniversary of the Lidzbarskie Wieczory Humoru i Satyry cabaret festival in Lidzbark Warmiński.

Upcoming programming includes the third edition of the ‘Tańczmy Wszyscy!’ dance review in Poznań, which focuses on promoting artistic activity for people with disabilities. In Łódź, the contemporary dance spectacle ‘OBEREK. Repeat’ is scheduled to premiere on September 13, 2026, at MSK: Niciarniana. This project, a collaboration between students from the Grażyna and Kiejstut Bacewicz Academy of Music and the ‘Anilana’ Song and Dance Ensemble, blends traditional rhythms with modern experimental choreography.

Further scheduled performances in Poland include a solo stand-up program by Rafał Rutkowski titled ‘Wehikuł Czasu’ (Time Machine) in Sieradz on March 17, 2027, which explores themes of technology, artificial intelligence, and life during the PRL era.

Meanwhile, in Lithuania, the International Poetry Festival ‘Maj nad Wilią’ is being held under the theme ‘Culture in Times of Anxiety,’ utilizing poetry, art, and concerts to discuss how culture responds to political uncertainty and European security concerns.
