The Grand Finale of Krakow’s Innovation Year

2025 moved quickly, pushed us forward, and tested new ideas.
So we’re closing it in style — with the holiday party of all holiday parties.

X-Mas Hangout: Innovative Holiday Party is where Krakow’s startup and innovation community comes together to connect, celebrate making it through the year, and spark what’s next for 2026.

This isn’t just another event.
It’s the final chapter of 2025 — and the first hint of the year ahead.

📅 Event Details

Thursday, December 18, 2025
18:00 – 23:00
Venue: Krakow Hub — Historic Main Railway Station

After a year of memorable events across iconic venues — Panorama Forum, Ace of Space Lubicz Park, Pełnia Social Club, and Hype Park — we’re stepping into our most extraordinary space yet:

🏛️ The Historic Main Railway Station

Opened in 1847, one of Poland’s oldest major stations, designed in a neoclassical style with a long elegant façade, high-ceilinged halls, noble columns and chandeliers.

Today, the building has a new identity — the headquarters of Reality Games and an emerging cultural-business hub. Together with the Foundation Supporting #OMGKRK, it’s taking on a new role as a modern center of innovation, creativity, and community.

Project is realized with the financial support of Małopolska Region and City of Krakow.
