Tour Salon 2026 in Poznań: Marcin Prokop, a Bike Ride to Marrakech, and Travel Beyond the Beaten Path
Cycling from Kołobrzeg to Marrakech. Traveling with two children and backpacks through temperatures ranging from +40°C to −22°C. Twelve weekend getaways in Poland instead of a single flight to Barcelona. These are just three of the stories taking center stage at Tour Salon 2026, held October 16–18, 2026, at MTP Poznań EXPO. Special guest Marcin Prokop will join the lineup, while visitors can explore destinations from Poland and abroad, enjoy a travel festival, and discover a dedicated zone for younger travelers.

Special Guest Marcin Prokop and Travelers with Their Own Vision of the World
At the heart of Tour Salon is a stage where travelers show that there are countless ways to discover the world. The special guest on Saturday, October 17, is Marcin Prokop, presenting “Extraordinary States of Mind While Traveling” (“Niezwykłe stany w podróży”).
That same day, Marcin Ryttel, known as Pseudocyklista, shares the story of his cycling journey from Kołobrzeg to Marrakech. The stage will also welcome Dorota Juranek, known as Mamba on Bike.
Marcin Krawczyk of Kierunkowo.pl, in his presentation “Why Travel All the Way to Barcelona? A Proven Plan for 12 City Breaks in Poland in 12 Months,” makes the case that inspiration doesn't have to come from far away.
Saturday's program also includes a presentation by Czech Tourism, a session on independently planning a trip to the Maldives, and a live cooking demonstration inspired by Gran Canaria. The cooking session will be led by Adrian Stojewski, a culinary coach, olive oil sommelier, and finalist in the World Paella Championships.
Sunday: Kids, Backpacks, and Two Continents
On Sunday, October 18, Bulina Travel will share the story of a family adventure in a presentation titled “From 104°F to −7.6°F: One Trip, Two Kids, and Just Backpacks,” demonstrating how to travel with young children.
The stage will also welcome Michał Cessanis, a journalist and travel book author, who will take the audience to South America in his presentation “Peru and Bolivia: Where the Earth Touches the Sky.”

Three Countries, Eight Polish Regions, and a Snapshot of the Whole Country
Tour Salon offers visitors the chance to discover a wide range of destinations without having to browse dozens of travel guides.
This year, participating countries include Slovakia, the Czech Republic, and Bulgaria. Poland will also be strongly represented, with eight regions taking part: Podlaskie, Lubelskie, Małopolskie, Podkarpackie, Wielkopolskie, Mazowieckie, Łódzkie, and Lubuskie.
Visitors can speak directly with regional representatives, ask about lesser-known destinations, and find inspiration for everything from a short getaway in Poland to a longer trip abroad.
From Patagonia to Alaska, with Japan and the Arctic for Kids
The 14th edition of the Śladami Marzeń Travel Festival is taking place alongside Tour Salon, with stories that take audiences to destinations including Corsica, Patagonia, Japan, the Camino de Santiago, and Alaska.
Featured speakers include Michał Woroch, Ewa Chwałko, Olga Beyga, Ola Synowiec and Arkadiusz Winiatorski, Joanna Murzydło, and Jakub Rybicki.
The weekend also offers a dedicated program for families. The TupTup Family Travel Festival combines travel, education, and fun, giving younger visitors the opportunity to discover Japan and the Arctic, explore the natural world, and take part in age-appropriate workshops. The program is complemented by an activity zone featuring entertainment and interactive activities.
