Meet Gdańsk in one night!

Long queues, bad weather or even tiredness are not an obstacle for many while waiting for the entrance to the museum. Maybe it's the thrill of the night, the joy of going out together with your loved ones, or just a simple curiosity? Probably all of the above, because the organizers come up with amazing ideas to attract the attention of the visitors. Multimedia shows, live music... these are just a few of the numerous attractions. It is a unique night, during which you can visit unknown nooks and crannies, and also discover the incredible impressions of visiting the museums "under the mantle of darkness."

Last year, among other things, you could:

• get to know the Slavic customs;
• play the field game "Secrets of the Water Cane";
• experience a night trip to Japan;
• catch a glimpse of Ukraine;
• visit the famous Museum of the Second World War;
• interactively participate in the night military reconstruction with pyrotechnic effects.

A special N0 tram will also be launched that night on the route:

Łostowice Świętokrzyska – Chełm – Hucisko – Dworzec Główny – Plac Solidarności–Kliniczna – Zaspa – Oliwa – Wrzeszcz – Opera – Dworzec Główny – Hucisko – Chełm – Łostowice Świętokrzyska

The line will operate according to a special timetable from 23:00 and 3:30 a.m., approximately every 30 minutes. Ticket prices according to the night rate.
