Home » News » Jewish Culture Festival

On the last Friday of June, one of Krakow's districts, Kazimierz, is going to feel the vibration of Jewish culture. During ten days of festival, you'll have opportunity to get to know better the amazingly rich Jewish cultural heritage.

Every year since 1988, the festival brings together performers representing diverse fields of Jewish art, and people willing to experience the magical ambiance of this event.
There will be spectacles, films and exhibitions waiting for you, but the most significant are music performances acquainting the public with numerous genres - klezmer music, synagogue song or folk music are just some of them. What is more, you don't have to be just a spectator! Traditional dance? Hebrew calligraphy? Cooking Jewish dishes? Try it yourself during workshops organised by devoted and imaginative professionals.
Given the Jews' past, the festival not only provides us with entertainment, but also constitutes an important way of connecting our history, traditions and helping to keep in mind the values such as tolerance, understanding and respect.
Taking part in the festival will surely be an unforgettable experience. If you want to make your stay in Krakow even more fulfilling, the Auschwitz & Birkenau Tour and Schindler List Tour would complement it perfectly.
