Enter Enea Festival

Name: Enter Enea Festival
Start: 2026-05-31
End: 2026-06-03
Location: Strzeszyńskie Lake

Sunday May 31 - Wednesday Jun 3 ul. Koszalińska (Strzeszynek)

Formerly known as Enter Festival, this casualty of corporate naming rights somehow got scrambled up as Enter Enea Festival following a partnership with the local energy company (guys, it's not too late to fix this!). The brainchild of Leszek Możdżer - a jazz pianist, producer and composer, and one of Poland's most internationally-recognised musicians - Enter Fest features four days of jazz premieres, open-air improvisations and laidback, lakeside vibes. As the festival's artistic director, Możdżer draws on his wealth of connections, colleagues and clout, inviting artists he has collaborated with, or would just simply love to see live. Each concert takes place outdoors on an open-air stage on Lake Strzeszyńskie - a unique setting that results in a loose, unpretentious and improvisational musical dynamic. Możdżer himself is not only often in attendance, but very often on stage with the festival's guests, and premiering his own musical projects. Ticket numbers are also limited, making for a very intimate and high-quality experience unlike other outdoor music festivals.
