Rap takes over student festivals
The first post-weekend data is clear. Rap and new pop are now drawing the strongest 18-24 audience at student festivals in Poland.

The first attendance data is coming in after a busy weekend of student festivals across Poland. One conclusion stands out: Polish hip-hop and new pop are currently driving the strongest concert demand among the 18-24 audience.
Artists such as Oki, Kukon and Zalia are generating the biggest engagement. Their shows are drawing the strongest crowds and setting the tone for today’s university festival scene.
For promoters, this is an important signal ahead of the next season. Classic rock acts still have a place on these lineups, but rap and new pop are now shaping booking priorities for the 2027 student festival calendar.
