International Sea Song Festival Shanties, festival of sailor
songs in
Krakow.
Land-locked Krakow may look an improbable place for a
festival of sailor songs yet the city hosts Poland's biggest
such event every February. It originated in 1981 and since
1996 has been named the International Sea Song Festival
Shanties or actually, in Polish, the Miedzynarodowy Festiwal
Piosenki Zeglarskiej "Shanties", popularly called 'shanty'.
