Our picks of events, camps, and places in Gdańsk.
Festival
Tens of thousands of locals walk the Old Town in red and white, ending under the Green Gate with the anthem, a sing-along and one giant family photo.
Workshop
A short talk on what Day of the Dead skulls mean, then kids craft their own Mexican-style calavera mask at Sopot's library.
Kids try woodworking at GAK Gama and build a bird feeder of their own, ready to hang outside before winter.
Kids and parents make a piñata side by side at a Fiesta Mexicana family workshop, upstairs at Stacja Food Hall.
Performance
A funny Polish-language play that travels through Gdańsk and Pomerania by way of old legends, and asks whether amber brings luck.
Phileas Fogg bets a fortune he can circle the globe in 80 days. A Jules Verne comedy where projections whisk the stage from London to India and beyond.
Kids and their grown-ups make an autumn mobile side by side at an art studio in Wiszące Ogrody.
A Polish-language Christmas show at Mostownia, where Miko and Piko decide to take a holiday risk. Only one performance is on the calendar.
Kids step inside a picture book about the shipyard, building, drawing and acting out stories side by side with a parent in a hall a short walk from the cranes.
A live orchestra and a program of songs set to Tuwim's Polish verses, in a children's concert at the Port of Gdynia's concert hall.
Exhibition
Kids walk into a hall-sized town with no set rules and decide what to build, paint and climb, while parents wait downstairs with coffee.
A children's theater series from Gdański Archipelag Kultury, with shows into December and seats cheap enough to risk a first show with a toddler.
Outdoors
A glowing Alice in Wonderland trail winds through parkland just south of Gdańsk. Bundle up, and check which ticket gets the whole family in for less.
