The main theme of each edition is independent, alternative music, ranging from less to more extreme genres (amongst past headliners are Venom Inc. and Pestilence). The festival’s unique setting of a Teutonic Castle lies at the heart of Kashubia region; its well-connected location renders THUNDER FEST easily accessible to fans from all over Poland and Europe. The town resides close to large regional cities which support a fast road network. Its nearest major airport is in Gdańsk, 86 km away (Berlin – 410km). All this combined makes the festival reachable from virtually anywhere in the world.

Bytów offers a variety of lodging options to satisfy both city comfort lovers and nature enthusiasts.
