The Vibrations Festival is the largest festival in Poland devoted to living in harmony and well-being. Broadly understood, because the diversity of attractions is impressive. Lectures, workshops, concerts, dances and bonfires, fairs, food zone and much more. It is not only a specific injection of knowledge, but also positive emotions. Common denominator? Healthy body and mind. Main idea? A life of harmony is at your fingertips – you just need to reach for it.
The Vibrations Festival will take place on July 16-21 in the town of Radotki near Płock. That’s when this small town will turn into a real festival oasis for six days. A camping site with access to electricity, a drinking water intake, seats, a catering and sanitary-hygienic zone with a toilet, sinks and showers, a parking lot – everything necessary to spend a few days in comfort can be found on site. And since the basic needs are provided, there is nothing left to do but move on to the festival part.
The 8th edition of the Wibracje Festival will begin with the Opening Ceremony, which is – as the organizers point out – a form of celebration of meeting, life and the rhythm of nature. What’s next? There are numerous thematic zones waiting for participants, where we will meet over a hundred speakers from Poland and abroad. Among the invited guests we will find names such as: Delfina Dellert (Naked.Loud.Proudly) or Freya Wolna. It is worth taking a look at the event schedule of individual zones. What will we find in them?
The target zone will be led by the world champion in horse archery – Norbert Kopczyński. Participants will not only be able to see, but also try out archery from all over the world.
In the tantra zone, Simon Paul Sutton (an actor also known for his main role in the French film “AO the Last Neanderthal”) will be waiting for the participants. The Portuguese will talk about how to incorporate pleasure into everyday life. In turn, Hania Darmas will present the key assumptions of neo-tantra that can help deepen relationships with other people and with yourself.
The sound zone is Tomek Torres (Afromental) and Tom Soltron (Tomasz Czartoryski), who comes especially from Spain. Participants will also have the chance to see a concert by Yael Deckelbaum. The Canadian-Israeli singer not only sings, but is also a peace activist. Equally interesting is the performance of Evan Hatfield – an American multi-instrumentalist who gained fame thanks to his unusual combination of sitar and synthesizers.
As you can see, the Vibrations Festival is a space where everyone will find people close to them with similar interests. In addition to the zones mentioned above, there is also an eastern arts zone, where Marcin Wojewoda will talk about the philosophy of Tao and conduct Taoist yoga workshops. An interesting element of this zone will also be classes by Łukasz Duszak – Chief Master of the Shaolin Monastery Poland.
The health alchemist’s zone is Joanna Ibisz and her story about functional medicine and the search for solutions that aim to find the causes of diseases and their treatment, not the symptoms. In the same zone, you will also meet Martyna Majewska, who will discuss the topic of reading the compositions and rules for including hazardous substances in cosmetics.
As you can see, there will certainly be no shortage of topics for conversation, especially since the Wibracje Festival has been promoting mutual inspiration for years.
Although the axis of the Wibracje Festival program are lectures and workshops, music fans have not been forgotten either. The main star of this year’s edition will be Leszek Możdżer, who will play two pianos: a 12-octave piano and the only 10-octave piano in the world, which was commissioned by the artist and created by scientists from the Polish Academy of Sciences. The inspiration was mathematics, thanks to which it is possible to predict physical experiments and thus better understand the world around us. The introduction to the concert will be a lecture by the mathematical physicist Dr. Tomasz Miller on mathematics – the language through which the universe speaks and reveals its secrets to us.
Other artists? For example, El Búho, Laboratorium Pieśni, Adrian Atma, Yemanjo, Evan Hatfield, the already mentioned Yael Deckelbaum, Evelina Ross or Esta Polyesta, which in practice means an impressive range of genres. Fans of electronic music, as well as ethno and house music, will find something for themselves.
Every year, the Vibrations Festival is increasingly visited by families with children. And this is not without reason – it is an extremely child-friendly place. This is facilitated not only by the friendly atmosphere of the event, but also by the fact that children under 11 do not pay admission.
Moreover, at the festival there is a special free play area for children, which the youngest can use under the supervision of parents or animators (up to two hours from 10:00 to 18:00). What attractions are planned? Creative and movement animations, intuitive dance, activities promoting connection with nature, soap bubble shows, laughter yoga and many others.

Six intense days, over a hundred invited guests, 11 thematic zones and 60 exhibitors, 20 years of experience in organizing events – numbers say a lot about the Wibracje Festival. And the most this one: 6 thousand. – at least that’s how many people come to Wibracje every year.
