Concerts take place under the huge tents system with wooden floor, preserving even few thousands of audience from possible rain or wind.

RNP is located at the beautiful area under lake Piaski (that’s where the name of festival comes from) in a city of Ostrow Wielkopolski. Ostrow Wielkopolski is well situated, middle size city, located in the West part of Poland. It is 300 km from Warsaw and even less from Berlin. The closest big cities are Poznań (120 km) and Wrocław (90 km).

Piaski is not only a perfect place for reggae lovers. It is also very popular place for active recreation, with its beautiful beach, clean water and dozens supplied acivities: climbing walls, sport fields, playgrounds for kids or especially Adventure Park on the trees. If you don’t like sport you can always just walk around whole lake on the new promenade.
