Green ZOO Festival is a city festival that takes place in Kraków, PL. It is a grassroots, community-driven initiative involving promoters Front Row Heroes and a number of local venues and artists.

The festival initially took shape in 2011, when a few local bands declared their interest and enthusiasm for supporting canadian singer-songwriter Basia Bulat's concert in Kraków. This sparked the promoters to broaden their initial plans and begin building a small festival, focused on showcasing interesting international artists, as well as the best of local, independent acts.

In 2012, Green ZOO Festival will even further integrate into the fabric of springtime Kraków. Taking place between 23rd and 26th of May in five different venues, all located within the historic Old Town, it will showcase over 25 international and local artists. One of the festival stages this year will be curated by Pop Montreal, an official partner of Green ZOO Festival.

As well as hosting music performances, the festival is to become a meeting platform for musicians and other members of the industry: booking agents, promoters, music press etc. Discussion panel topics this year are to include songwriting, DIY strategies, concert booking and photography.
