Magnum Sal 2026 brings jazz underground on 31 October
The official programme lists Magnum Sal 2026 as the prologue to the 71st Krakow Jazz All Souls' Day Festival. It names two projects: Witkacy MultiArt by Leszek Kulakowski and Ananke by Marek Stryszowski, with the representative brass band of the Wieliczka Salt Mine also taking part. The programme is published by the festival organiser and places the concert at Warsaw Chamber, Dani?owicza 10, 32-020 Wieliczka.
The mine operator also lists the event for 31 October 2026 at 6pm. Its event listing for 31 October identifies the chamber and describes the evening as two musical narratives with visual components. The festival's 2026 programme supplies the venue, date, start time and participating artists.
Wieliczka Salt Mine gives the programme a historic setting
Warsaw Chamber is part of a mine whose underground spaces combine industrial history with religious and artistic features. UNESCO describes the Wieliczka and Bochnia Royal Salt Mines as a serial World Heritage property illustrating the development of mining techniques from the thirteenth to the twentieth centuries.
The UNESCO description records hundreds of kilometres of galleries, underground chapels and statues carved in salt. That history gives Magnum Sal 2026 a setting directly related to its subject: the concert places contemporary jazz and visual work inside a preserved mining landscape rather than in a conventional concert hall. UNESCO also notes that an underground tourist route has existed since the early nineteenth century. Further background appears in the organisation's World Heritage description.
