Regional Dożynki harvest festivals in Poland

Overview

Regional harvest festivals, known as Dożynki, continue to be held across various parts of Poland to celebrate the end of the agricultural season and honor local farmers. These celebrations typically feature a mix of religious services, such as thanksgiving masses and processions, alongside cultural festivities including folk music, traditional wreath presentations, and local culinary showcases. In the Wielkopolska region, the Wielkopolskie Ludowe Święto Plonów in Wtórek drew more than 20,000 attendees, marking the 30th anniversary of the Wielkopolska Izba Rolniczej County Council. As celebrations proceed through late August and September 2026, festivities have been documented in municipalities such as Gniezno, Cieszanów, and Mietków. In the Tarnów municipality, celebrations in Zbylitowska Góra featured a harvest wreath competition, where representatives from Poręba Radlna and Łękawka were awarded first place. Local officials noted that while harvests were approximately 5% smaller than in previous years, the season was still considered a success. By mid-September 2026, celebrations expanded into the Diocese of Łomża, where a Mass at the Łomża Cathedral was led by Bishop Janusz Stepnowski. During this event, Minister of Agriculture and Rural Development Stefan Krajewski presented ‘Honorary Badges – Meritorious for Agriculture’ to recognize farmers' contributions to food security. In the Małopolska region, recent festivities in Bukowska Wola, Przeginia, and Poręba Górna were marked by tax inspections from the National Revenue Administration (KAS). These inspections focused on whether vendors were correctly using cash registers and maintaining sales records for local specialties. In Przeginia, three fines ranging from 600 to 1,500 PLN were issued. In Bukowska Wola, fines totaling 7,500 PLN were issued to various vendors, including a vineyard owner, an amusement park operator, and members of rural women's circles from Górka Kościejowska and Miroszowa.
