Pol'and'Rock Festival is a massive annual open-air music festival held at the former Czaplinek-Broczyno airfield in Poland. Often referred to as 'The Most Beautiful Festival in the World,' it is organized by the Great Orchestra of Christmas Charity Foundation as a gesture of gratitude to volunteers. The event is notable for its free admission policy, allowing hundreds of thousands of attendees to enjoy diverse musical genres on multiple stages. It features a sprawling 'City of Music' tent village, workshops, and extensive NGO activity areas. The site covers a large rural area near the Drawsko Lake District, requiring significant foot traffic to navigate. While music is the focus, the festival emphasizes social engagement, charity, and open-minded community interaction. It is traditionally held in late summer, utilizing the vast infrastructure of the post-military airfield.
