The first day of the Bolesławiec Days Festival will be dedicated to Bolesławiec seniors. The following will perform: the Polish Association of Pensioners, Retirees and the Disabled, the Day Care Home and the University of the Third Age.

Young people from the BOK-MCC workshops will also perform: Break Dance, Agata Pińczuk-Burdzy's Song Studio, Barbara Lendzian's Vocal Workshop, Poeticon and the Guitar Workshop.

The Stanisław Wyspiański Youth Cultural Centre will present itself on the occasion of its 60th anniversary. One of the programme highlights will be an exhibition opening by Katarzyna Sas's painting group, “The Passion for Creating”.

Students of the State Music School of First Degree and the Music School of Second Degree will also perform that day. The day will end with a concert by Tercet Egzotyczny, a legend of Polish popular music.

The second day will see the start of the South Slavic Culture Festival. The musical star will be the Lublin folk band Caci Vorba.

The third day of the Bolesławiec Days Festival will belong to the Society of Friends of Lviv and the Southeastern Borderlands. The day will include the conclusion of the “Saving from Oblivion – Borderland Residents” project, carried out by the Stanisławów Polish Exiles to Siberia Memorial Lower Secondary School No. 2 and the Museum of Ceramics in Bolesławiec. During the ceremony, a book containing biographies of Borderland residents will be promoted.

The Bolesławiec Days Festival will conclude with concerts by Hoverla (folk rock) and Nadija, Lemko folk seasoned with sunny reggae and ska energy. Nadija's songs combine the traditions of many Slavic cultures and ethnic minorities. The lyrics are written in the Lemko, Ukrainian and Polish languages. The need to create music with a touch of folk stems from the band's roots and attachment to tradition. Half of the band members are Lemkos by heritage, so folk has flowed through the boys' veins since birth. Add the other half of Slavic charisma and you have a purely energetic blend.
