WARSAWESOME:

WEEKEND IN WARSAW

MARCH 12 – 14

 

This weekend still can be fun. Yeah, it is true that it will be rather snowy and not very sunny. Yes, from Monday, Warsaw will be red-zoned and that means closing shopping malls, galleries, museums, and cinemas. Still, the event menu for the weekend can make up for all that. Dig in our list to find out the TOP 6 weekend events that will keep you on your toes and fuel the conversations in the next week.

If you would like to receive our weekend guide by email every week, please enter your email address below. Delivery every Thursday.

1) Sinfonia Varsovia gets you animated

Sinfonia Varsovia is a top-level musical institution on a global scale. This weekend they will transport us into the magical realms of soundtracks from animated pictures. We will hear compositions from Fairytale Poem, Nox, and III Symfonia „Koncertująca”. We can expect to be enchanted, surprised, and lulled into deep reflections on life and reality. The concert will be preceded by a discussion with the composers and music journalists.

2) Women’s craft market

“Girls In the Process” is an initiative of Polish craftswomen that aims to promote their products and share their skills and knowledge.

3) Hear the Slavic Spirits in the Space of Jazz concert

Electro-Acoustic Beat Session investigates Slavic spirituality and demonology with their Slavic Spirits initiative. They will take us on a musical journey through forests and meadows to get to Ślęża (the sacred mountain) where we all will fall into Sun Salutation frenzy. The concert will be available for two days.

4)  Old Fashioned Friday evening – movie night in FINA 

If you are after a chill, yet quite romantic, Friday afternoon, that’s the event you’re looking for. FINA gives you free access to Old Fashioned (IMDb), a film about love and stripping it from the 21st century’s obsession with corporeality. The viewing will be preceded by a 15-minute lecture by dr Łukasz Jasina.

If you happen to enjoy FINA’s initiatives, you might want to listen to the special episode of their podcast on Saturday at 16:00. It will be dedicated to the image of women in pre-war Polish cinema. More on FB event.

 

5) Vintage books and vinyl records market

We truly appreciate vintage books and vinyl records markets in Elektrownia Powiśle. The prices start from 1PLN and you can get your hands on real white whales. That may also be one of the last chances to attend some real-life market for a while, so if you enjoy this kind of experience, you should go there.
