Poland Happenings

Poland is an increasingly important centre of culture, and artisans, performers and musicians from all over the world now regularly arrive here to showcase their various talents. Katowice, thanks to its stadiums, performance venues, jazz clubs and budget airport, has a penchant for pulling international acts away from trendy Kraków, developing a reputation as the place to play in Southern Poland. In Your Pocket is dedicated to bringing news of these events to as wide an audience as possible. Besides the listings on the print guide, we also regularly update our website with all the news and events as they reach us, sometimes after our print guide has gone to press. For the latest event information make www.inyourpocket.com the first place you visit.
