That's how we rocked - Pol'and'Rock Festival in numbers


Time after the festival is focused on conclusions and driven by numbers - rather than showing ubiquitous KPIs; we want to share the scope of our festival and put what makes that Pol'and'Rock experience so special into the language of numbers. 

• 4 meetings with bands on the Discord platform. An opportunity to chat with four groups: Łydka Grubasa, Black River, Hańba! and Dubioza Kolektiv was offered to music fans who could not be with us at the festival. 
• 9 meetings were held at the Academy of the Finest of Arts. As a result, the audience got a chance to listen and interact with some of the best-known and respected actors, journalists, social activists, sportspeople and adventurers. 
• 20th anniversary of Neo-nówka show at Pol'and'Rock Festival. The comedy group opened the Night Stage at the Academy of the Finest of Arts. 
• 23 trucks brought equipment used to build the festival stage - it includes sound and light equipment. 
• 25 years ago West Pomerania hosted our Festival for the first time. In 1996 we descended upon Szczecin-Dąbie airfield. Makowice-Płoty airfield is the seventh location to host the Most Beautiful Festival in the World - to date we have played in Czymanowo, Szczecin, Żary, Lębok, Kostrzyn nad Odrą (we remained there for 16 years), and once in Warsaw (the online edition of our festival). 
• 28 concerts took place at the Main Stage. Five more concerts took place at the Night Stage at the Academy of the Finest of Arts.
