“Zaraz będzie ciemno!” – this phrase echoed through the stages of one of the biggest rock and alternative music festivals in Europe, Pol’and’Rock Festival (known as Przystanek Woodstock until 2017). In 2024, the festival took place, following its new tradition, at the Czaplinek-Broczyno airfield in the West Pomeranian Voivodeship from August 1st to 3rd.
The festival, which attracts hundreds of thousands of people each year, from all age groups and from all over the world, is organized by the Wielka Orkiestra Świątecznej Pomocy Foundation, led by Jurek Owsiak. Its purpose is to thank the incredible WOŚP volunteers for their dedication to raising funds for those in need, as well as to acknowledge those who support charitable and social initiatives.
The 30th Edition of Pol’and’Rock Festival
During this year’s jubilee 30th edition of the festival, in addition to the famous greeting at the beginning of this article, our GRAPHITE and NEO TOOLS brand tools also made an appearance! We donated dozens of them to help prepare the site before the event, as well as during and after its conclusion!
At this festival of music, love, and solidarity, not only concerts take place. There are also meetings, discussions with invited guests, and additional attractions planned. We feel that thanks to our tools and accessories, the entire event was even safer for the participants of Pol’and’Rock Festival 2024!
Which Tools Supported the Event Behind the Scenes?
GRAPHITE and NEO TOOLS supported the organizers both in the preparation phase and during the event, helping to ensure its smooth running. Among the invaluable tools were:

Once again, tools and accessories from GRAPHITE and NEO TOOLS have proven that they can handle any circumstances – whether on the future campsite, on stage, or behind the scenes.
