Kraków will be buzzing that weekend (Friday–Sunday, 14–16 November 2025). We cherry-picked a few city events you might enjoy while you “Hive it your own way!”
How to use DIY Kraków Weekender posts?
Spin up micro-meetups around any item (or your own idea). Drop a comment/ping in chat (or in the bridged Telegram group) when/where you’re going. Others will join if they like.
We planned to list a bunch of events, but one is big enough for its own entry:
Audio Art
Audio Art is an experimental and postmodernist art of the close of XX century and the beginning of the XXI century. Audio Art is an integration of sound and visual art. Presentation of Audio Art appears in form of the concert, performance and installation. Audio Art creates new concept of sound source: as an object and musical instrument in certain space and time. Audio Art is a "one person art": composer, designer and performer unify the whole process of art creation. Audio Art uses low and high technology. Audio Art Festival presents individual artists from all over the world. Festival also presents other non-audio art events extending the whole image of the art based on sound.
