POLISH FESTIVAL 2016

On Sunday November 13, we attended the largest Polish festival in Australia at Federation Square in the City. Now in its twelfth year, the Polish Festival is a celebration of the language, customs and culture of the Polish people, showcasing Poland’s famous hospitality, hearty food, romantic traditions, song and dance, with merchandise and culinary delights that truly transport one to the historical town squares of Europe.

 Whether you love it for the lively, old-world atmosphere, unique shopping or just the tasty food and beer, this festival has something for everyone. This annual event brings together a community of expatriates and descendants of Polish immigrants, all keen to share the best of what Poland has to offer. And a good time was had by all!

    There must be a significant expat population from Poland living in Australia, to have a festival like this. Love the colorful clothes, and also the dances of Eastern Europe! Thanks so much for sharing this wonderful festival with ALL SEASONS! Have a great week!

    Hello Nick, We were traveling all day yesterday to arrive home from FL late last night. We came home to a full day of obligations, thus my late comments to my Blue Monday friends.

    You sure captured the Polish Festival in your photos. The colorful costumes and the people in the photos are having a grand time in honor of their traditions. I love to attend events such as this. We have a Scottish festival in our small town every year and it is also a very fun event to be a part of. Ones of my sisters played an accordion. Thanks for posting this colorful event. Smiling here.
    Jeanne
