"MDF Festival - The Philharmonic Filled with Energy
The MUSIC.DESIGN.FORM Festival, one of Poland's most innovative and experimental cultural festivals, returns for its sixth edition. Concerts, debates, exhibitions, and plenty of energy (not just musical) from September 20 to 24th at the Philharmonic!
From its very inception, the festival has aimed to transcend the boundaries between arts and explore new directions in the development of music, art, and modern technologies. This year, it adopts the theme of ENERGY.
ENERGY will be examined from various perspectives during the five-day festival – from the energy conveyed through music to educational aspects related to ecology and sustainable development. The festival's goal is not only to provide unforgettable artistic experiences but also to educate and encourage reflection on current social challenges.

The festival program will be full of diverse events, presenting ENERGY in various aspects:

September 20, 2023 – Argument Duel: How to Tune the World?


We kick off the festival with an open expert debate in which the audience can actively participate in a discussion about the impact of the climate crisis on individual and societal behaviours. The value of the discussion lies in its diversity and in approaching ecology through the lens of culture and art. Free admission. READ MORE
