Grab a deckchair
Summer in Poznań means one thing: pretending you’ll arrive early for a good seat, showing up late anyway, and somehow still ending up watching a film from behind someone’s head. Grab a deckchair, stare at the stars, fight off one mosquito, and enjoy a free movie in the heart of the city.
The popular #NaWolnym Cinema is back in the courtyard of Poznań City Hall, once again turning bureaucracy’s backyard into one of the city’s best summer spots. From June through August, it’s all open-air screenings, night air, and that very specific Poznań ritual of “just one more film” turning into a full evening outside.
Here’s what’s on the big screen this year:

A sharp, darkly funny Polish drama about relationships, frustration, and everything people would say… if they actually dared.
