Ever since The Great Escape first launched in 2006, we have placed a particular focus on a different international region each year, providing festival-goers with the chance to delve into the music scene of that area and discover some really great bands in the process. This year we've partnered with Poland's Adam Mickiewicz Institute who will be bringing their legendary showcase, "Don't Panic! We're From Poland' back to Brighton.
And if all this talk about Poland is beginning to give you an appetite for musical globetrotting then we're here to cater for your worldly musical needs. Take a look below at the planetary treats we've got in store for you, with each showcase hosted by one of our international partners.
