Weather in Cracow

Best time to visit

Cracow is a year-round destination but if you want to beat the crowds (and still enjoy reasonably good weather), visit in late spring or early summer (mid-May to June) or at the end of summer or start of autumn (late September to October). Culture and history lovers should time their visit for June when the Wianki festival (an event where hundreds of young women throw wreaths into the river in the hope of love) and the Lajkonik Pageant (a colourful parade celebrating the city’s resistance to the Tatars in 1287) both take place.
