Entrances to the concerts in the Arcaded Courtyard: the Berrecci Gate and the gate next to the Senators’ Tower. The gates open at 7:00 p.m.

The concerts take place in open-air venues. Since the concerts are outdoor events, we ask the audience members to be prepared for chilly weather and rain - please bring a cap or a hat, a scarf or any other head covering. We kindly ask to leave your umbrellas at home, as they may make enjoying the concerts difficult for others. Keep in mind - the weather can change at any time, though music always lifts the spirits.

We would also ask that you do not take photographs or record videos during the concerts. Keep your phones and electronic devices switched off, as they may interfere with your enjoyment of the beautiful music and your contemplation of the illuminated architecture of the Wawel Royal Castle.

You may bring in up to 0.5 litres of water to the concerts. Please note that food and coloured beverages are prohibited in the Courtyards. Due to security concerns, your bags will be checked at the gates to the Arcaded Courtyard.
