The Twin Cities Polish Festival (TCPF) provides a cornucopia of Polish cultural experiences. It is located in the historic heart of Northeast Minneapolis, where many Polish immigrants settled and worked.  The Festival group is dedicated to promoting and celebrating the rich and vibrant heritage, traditions and cultural contributions of the Polish immigrants who settled in the Twin Cities and state of Minnesota, as well as the contributions of the Polish-Americans and Polish immigrants of today, who contribute to the success of our communities. It is also TCPF’s goal to stimulate an interest in Poland and increase awareness of Poland’s cultural and artistic contributions throughout history and in today’s contemporary world.

 The Twin Cities Polish Festival is a family-friendly event where Polish Americans and immigrants can gather to proudly celebrate their Polish Heritage. It provides an opportunity for multi-generations of Polish-Americans to reconnect with their Polish ethnic roots. The Festival also reaches out to the community-at-large, a widely diverse audience, to provide an educational opportunity for the entire community to experience, enjoy and learn about  Polish folk art, dance, music, fine art, film, language, and cuisine.
