We are providing information on the new Open'er Festival powered by Orange date: June 30 - July 3, 2021.
Dear Open’er Goers,
We are very sorry to inform you that due to the ongoing global epidemic crisis, for the safety of attendees and everyone working at the festival, as well as in the face of administrative decisions of the authorities, this year's edition of Open'er Festival powered by Orange will not take place. The new festival dates are: June 30th – July 3rd 2021.
"This will be the first summer without Open'er since 2002. What a strange and devastating feeling... Summer festivals are all that coronavirus hates. It's an emanation of life, it's music and art that we experience together, it's freedom and joy. It is a celebration of both community and individuality. The virus won this round, but don’t worry – human kind has overcome bigger problems. We will be back soon. And it will be a spectacular comeback! I promise that from now on, together with the entire Alter Art team, we will work every day to make Open'er even better, even more interesting and even stronger. We will use this time well. We will be in constant contact with you, we have a lot of new ideas and we are starting preparations for the 2021 edition! Good news is also that this year's program will mostly return next year, enriched with many new elements. Take care of yourself and take care of others, support those on the front line and think about how Open'er 2021 will taste after 24 months of separation from the previous edition… when seemingly the simplest things will gain a new dimension! See you in Gdynia on June 30th – July 3rd 2021."

Open’er Team
For 19 years, Open'er has become one of the most important elements of summer in Poland, awarded several times as the Best Major Festival in Europe, builds next generations of festival goers. Every year at the Gdynia-Kosakowo airport, from scratch and after many months of preparation, we create a whole new festival world, in which 120 to 140 thousand people appear for several days. The extremely engaged open'er community enjoys freedom, and music meets theater, cinema, museums, fashion and discussions on the most important civic topics.
Open’er is also an important element of culture. Festival engages and connects local communities, determines who and what we are. Open’er is also a significant element of the Polish and local economy. This is a very important point of the economic life of Gdynia, the Tri-City and the entire Pomeranian Voivodeship, involving local hotels, gastronomy, shops, service and product providers, taxi drivers, airports, national and regional transport and many other entities. Nearly 8,000 people work at the festival itself. For several days each year, the Tri-City operates, lives and breathes in the rhythm of Open'er. At the beginning of July many Polish cities are empty - we are at the seaside in Gdynia. And we love this moment.
