Although we won’t travel to the Polish Pottery Festival with our small group this August (due to late Polish border opening related to the ongoing pandemic),  we’re sure looking forward to attending this year’s festival in Boleslawiec, Poland privately and updating our guests from around the world with all the planned events and new pottery designs. We hope that next year, we can travel together as a group and enjoy this spectacular festival.

In its 27th year, the Polish Pottery Festival is once again scheduled to be held this year in the city of Boleslawiec, in the Lower Silesia region of Poland from August 18 – 22, 2021. It’s not expected that the festival will be postponed or cancelled this year due to the COVID-19 pandemic, as it draws thousands of people from all over Poland and the world. A must for aficionados of pottery, this festival features some of best handmade ceramics Made in Poland.
