The final stretch before Żagle!

The first guests are approaching the Szczecin quays, and the entire event zone is bustling with work. There are less than 48 hours left until the great sailing festival!

The organization of Żagle 2026 is entering its decisive phase. After many months of planning, hard work, and fine-tuning all the details, the time has come for finalization. Ready-made stalls, stands, and food points are popping up along the promenades. Colorful elements of amusement parks and inflatables are also being assembled.

Technical crews are building the stages where exceptional artists will perform from Friday to Sunday. During all these activities, we constantly watch over safety – every element of the infrastructure is properly secured and checked.

Security and medical services are preparing to welcome thousands of participants. Information points and medical facilities will be set up in the event area. We have planned everything so that the fun runs smoothly and without disruptions.

Soon, you will be able to feel a foretaste of the sailing festival. The food zones will be filled with the aroma of unique dishes, the stalls will be filled with handicrafts from various corners of Poland, and the first sounds of soundchecks will be heard from the stages.

What all participants are waiting for the most is about to happen – the vessels that will visit this year’s Żagle will moor at the quays! The first sailing ships are already sailing into our city, and the peak of welcomes is scheduled for Thursday.

The sight of the vibrant space from Adam Mickiewicz Square to Łasztownia is a sign that the great sailing festival is just around the corner. All zones will be open to visitors starting Friday, August 14, from 4:00 PM.
