It's that time of the year again – the annual Pierogi Festival in Krakow is just around the corner! This beloved event is a celebration of Poland's culinary heritage, bringing locals and visitors together to savor the irresistible taste of pierogi while immersing themselves in the vibrant atmosphere of the city's historic Mały Rynek (just off the Main Square).
Mark your calendars – this year's Pierogi Festival will take place from the 11th to the 15th of August. The event kicks off at 10 am every day and promises to cater to every hungry soul until the last visitor is satiated.

But that's not all – your opinion matters too! Prepare for an exciting competition featuring two categories: the ultimate classic, Pierogi Ruskie, and the most innovative creation, the Best Unique Pierogi.
In the previous edition, the victor of the first category emerged as the dumplings crafted by U Babci Władzi eatery. Meanwhile, the spotlight in the diverse composition division shone by Szalone Widelce – renowned for its chicken, broccoli, and cheese sauce-infused dumpling. Now, as the anticipation builds, the question lingers: Will the reigning champions of last year successfully defend their coveted titles? The only way to know for sure is to be there and experience the culinary showdown firsthand!
