Programme

Festival opening

Friday, Aug 28, 11:00-11:15, MAIN STAGE, Warsaw Presidential Hotel. A quarter of an hour that sets up the whole three days. Michal Owerczuk says why Warsaw Glitch exists, how to read a programme built from four parallel strands, and where to find your own place in it. This is the moment for the map: which stage is for what, what runs at the same time, what you cannot see twice, and how to move between rooms without losing the thing you came for. If this is your first time at the festival, start here.
