WOŚP 2025 Grand Finale in Poznań

27 Jan

The 33rd Grand Finale of the Great Orchestra of Christmas Charity (WOŚP) took place in Poznań at the end of January 2025. As every year, local events were organized across Poland and worldwide, bringing people together through fundraising activities and concerts featuring diverse musical genres. This year, donations were collected to support pediatric oncology and hematology.

One of the most unexpected performances at the Ławica WOŚP team venue came from the rock band "Gorgonzolla." Due to the lead vocalist’s temporary indisposition, the band's vocal duties fell solely on one member, giving their set a unique, darker tone. This shift in dynamic showcased a different side of their music, adding raw intensity to their performance and making it a standout moment for both fans and photographers capturing the evening.

At the same time, another stage near Posnania hosted a variety of performances, including a musical show by Lupa X Wasilewska and a vibrant set by the cover band XYZ. These performances brought a different, yet equally engaging, musical atmosphere, offering diverse photographic opportunities.

The highlight of the evening at the MTP stage was the phenomenal concert by Natalia Przybysz. Her deep, emotional vocals and immersive stage presence provided a breathtaking performance, making it a must-capture moment for any concert photographer. The intensity of her music and the audience's reactions created a powerful visual narrative.

The grand finale concluded with an eco-friendly version of the traditional "Light to the Sky." Instead of fireworks, the event featured the “Tytka z Glancem” — paper bags adorned with the WOŚP heart logo, illuminated by the glow of mobile phone flashlights. At 8:00 PM, the entire area of the Universal National Exhibition was bathed in a collective warm light, symbolizing hope and unity.

Capturing the essence of the 33rd WOŚP Finale in Poznań was an unforgettable experience. The mix of community spirit, diverse music acts, and shared purpose provided an abundance of compelling images, telling the story of a city united in compassion and generosity.
