International Choir and Orchestra Festival

CRACOW – one of the twelve most important towns in the world. The former capital of Poland is one of Europe's last undiscovered destinations by mass tourism.

This market place is divided by huge cloth halls as well as the gothic St Mary's Basilica. At the south edge of the old town rises the Wawelburg with the famous King’s castle. In these historic surroundings, in the renowned churches of Krakow as well as in the concert hall with its appealing acoustics, the concerts of the Cracovia Music Festival take place.
