“See you by the lake!” – under this slogan, the 12th edition of the Powidz Jam Festival will take place from 30 July to 2 August 2026. As the largest music event in the region, it brings together four days of live music, four stages, around thirty bands, and more than 150 musicians. If you’re looking for the perfect reason to visit Lake Powidzkie this summer, you’ve just found it.
Below you’ll find everything you need to plan your festival trip – from the programme and tickets to transport and, most importantly, where to stay so you don’t miss a thing.
When and where does the festival take place?
Powidz Jam Festival 2026 runs from Thursday, 30 July, to Sunday, 2 August. Events are held in Powidz and the neighbouring village of Przybrodzin, while the main concerts take place on the Main Stage “Łazienki” in Park Łazienkowski, located on Bilskiego Street in Powidz.
In addition to the main stage, the organisers prepare stages for emerging artists as well as performance areas by the beaches, meaning music fills the entire town. Evening concerts naturally turn into late-night jam sessions that continue until the early hours.
Who’s performing in 2026?
The first confirmed headliner for the 2026 edition is Vito Bambino, who will perform on Thursday, 30 July, at 8:00 PM in Park Łazienkowski. The former Bitamina frontman and creator of albums such as Poczekalnia and Pracownia, together with hits including Americano, will open the festival with his signature energetic and summery sound.
Another confirmed act is Fisz Emade Tworzywo, while additional artists are being announced regularly on the festival’s official website and social media channels. Previous editions have featured some of Poland’s biggest names, including Krzysztof Zalewski, Daria Zawiałow, Kortez, Ørganek, Grubson, and PRO8L3M.
Tickets – prices and where to buy them
Tickets for the opening concert are available in several pricing tiers, starting from PLN 129, followed by PLN 149 and PLN 169, through the festival’s official ticket sales channels.
The organisers strongly advise against purchasing tickets from unofficial marketplaces or online classifieds, as such tickets may be invalid. Buying early is recommended, as the lowest-priced ticket pools usually sell out first and the festival attracts an increasing number of visitors from across Poland every year.
How to get there?
Powidz is located in the Słupca County, approximately 20 minutes from the A2 motorway exit (Słupca interchange), around one hour from Poznań, and about two and a half hours from Warsaw.
Travelling by car is the most convenient option, although public transport connections are also available from nearby towns.
Where to stay during Powidz Jam Festival?
Camping certainly has its charm, but after a full day of concerts and late-night jam sessions, nothing compares to a comfortable bed, a private bathroom, and a proper breakfast.
Our accommodation facilities – Ekoosada and Agroturystyka Zacisze – provide an ideal festival base:
- comfortable rooms where you can truly relax before another day of concerts,
- hearty breakfasts to recharge after late-night jam sessions,
- the opportunity to extend your stay and combine the festival with a relaxing holiday by one of the cleanest lakes in Greater Poland.
During the festival weekend, accommodation across the region often reaches full occupancy, with reservations for late July and early August starting months in advance. If you’re planning to attend Powidz Jam Festival 2026, booking your accommodation should be just as much of a priority as purchasing your festival ticket.
The festival is only the beginning
Between concerts, visitors can enjoy a wide range of accompanying attractions, including the Jam Run, SUP yoga sessions, a classic car rally, the unique Blues Boat concert on the lake, and even scenic sightseeing flights over Lake Powidzkie.
Once the festival comes to an end, Powidz returns to its peaceful rhythm of lakeside relaxation, sailing, cycling, and forest walks – making it the perfect destination for anyone who decides to stay a little longer.
Book your stay for 30 July – 2 August 2026 today, and we’ll see you by the lake!
