Set in a unique location, turning the former mining city of Katowice in Poland into one of the focal points of the DIY music festival scenario, the Tauron Nowa Muzyka Katowice is one of the best-organized music festivals in Poland. Röyksopp, Sudan Archives, Tangerine Dream, William Basinski, Oneohtrix Point Never, Orbital, and Skalpel were among the 40 or more exceptional domestic and international artists who performed across 5 festival stages over the course of the four festival days in its 18th edition.
Founding: 2006
Evolution: The inaugural edition of the festival was held in the disused Wilson Shaft of the Wieczorek coal mine. The following two editions were hosted in Cieszyn and from 2009 onwards the festival found its way back to Katowice. Initially, it occupied the grounds of the inactive 'Katowice' coal mine, and between 2012 and 2013, it was held in the Valley of Three Ponds. Since 2014, the festival has made its home in the Katowice Culture Zone.
Previous Performers: Röyksopp, Orbital, Theon Cross, William Basinski
