The Up to Date Festival starts in just 10 days!
This year’s Up to Date Festival marks the new chapter in festival history. There’s new dates (June 23-24), new location (it’s secret!), a new ecological strategy and our first international conference in Białystok. We’re almost there as the festival starts in a bit over the week.
It’s the 14th edition of the Up to Date Festival already. This time, everyone with a pass will get an information where the festival takes place on the day of the event. We miss the classic 90s raves too!
⭐ DO YOU HAVE QUESTIONS ABOUT THE SECRET LOCATION? WE HAVE THE ANSWERS 📍
As the festival has lost its Facebook profile and its main platform of communication, we encourage everyone to join the new group we created as we try to get back the control over the fanpage. In there, everyone will find all the organisational information about the festival and can mingle a bit before meeting IRL. The situation is an obvious hurdle for us, but it doesn’t diminish our determination to deliver the best edition of the festival.
