Woodstock Festival, Poland

The 2002 Woodstock was significant, because it was filmed, and the footage was used to produce "Przystanek Woodstock. Najgłośniejszy Film Polski" ("The Woodstock Station. The Loudest Film In Poland"), a concert film, which was screened in movie theatres across the country the following year, and also took part in a number of international film festivals.
The 2003 Woodstock was the last one held in the town of Żary. Because of controversy surrounding some incidents during the festival, that Jerzy Owsiak was part of, it was decided that Żary would no longer be a setting for the concerts.
Since 2004, the festival has taken place in the town of Kostrzyn nad Odrą.
In 2009 Woodstock gathered about 450.000 people, in 2011 the attendance was above 700.000.
