Holiday breaks
Poland winter school break: find a trip by region
Poland's education ministry splits the two-week winter break (ferie zimowe) into waves by voivodeship. Pupils in Mazowieckie, which includes Warsaw, are off 1–14 February 2027; Małopolskie, which includes Kraków, follows on 15–28 February. The example departs from Warsaw for seven days. Pupils in Kraków can choose Kraków as the departure city in the trip tool.

What to weigh
- The break is two weeks; seven days is only the example. Raise the days in the tool if your leave allows.
- Check your own voivodeship's fortnight. Other regions have different dates in the same ministry table.
- School breaks are not automatic paid leave for parents.
Questions
- Is the winter break the same across Poland?
- No. The ministry assigns voivodeships to different two-week periods between January and March.
- Are these live prices?
- No. They are modelled whole-trip estimates for the example inputs shown. Change the departure city, days, budget or party to recalculate.
