“Great event! But one thing: tickets sold out more than two weeks before Kupala Night! The tickets were too cheap for an event like this!”

“I’m exhausted and my muscles are sore, but it was worth it!”
What is Folkowe Ucho?
Folkowe Ucho performs four times a year to mark important Slavic holidays. Depending on the event, various attractions are available that are perfectly tailored to the spirit of each holiday.
We’re meeting in Gdynia, at the Podwórko Art club. In this industrial seaside space, tradition is being reborn! You’ll hear white singing, early music, neo-folk, electro-folk, and even folk metal. There’s something folk for everyone!
A magical space where oneness with nature intertwines with folk-metal melodies. Here, there’s something for everyone—a Slavic atmosphere, echoes of the ancestors, or contemporary electronic music—one place, many facets. Here, history comes alive, and the music and atmosphere sweep you away to dance, leaving a wild and primal joy in your heart.
