May in Poland is shaping up to be something special. For one month, doors will open to places that are usually closed to the public — and communities across the country will come together to celebrate just how much has changed.
From open days at major investment sites to family picnics and local festivals, Funduszowy Maj is a nationwide showcase of the transformation that European Union Funds have brought to Polish cities and regions. Renovated town squares and historic old towns, cutting-edge science centres, parks, riverside promenades, cultural venues — this is your chance to experience them like never before.
The timing is no coincidence. May holds a special place in Poland’s relationship with Europe. The 1st marks the anniversary of Poland joining the European Union, while the 9th is celebrated as Europe Day — making this the perfect moment to reflect on over two decades of shared progress and investment.
Events will be added on a rolling basis, so keep checking back for the latest updates:
