A Shift in Festival Culture. 

What Plays Within Us? Emotions, Crises & Community at BitterSweet

Martyna Olszak sits down with Justyna Żukowska-Gołębiewska, Damian Ziółkowski, and Sara Kordek. ❋ Why does experiencing music together have a calming effect? ❋ How can you recognize a mental health crisis in someone next to you — and why are we truly co-responsible for each other at a festival? ❋ How many decisions in festival planning are rooted in emotion, care, and attentiveness? This will be a conversation about emotions, crises, relationships, and boundaries. About behind-the-scenes chaos, plans and improvisation — about everything that makes BitterSweet more than just music. It’s an experience that stays with your body and your memory. Because today, a festival isn’t just about who’s playing. It’s about how you feel with what’s playing inside you.
