Congress 2025: Mastering Media’s New Playbook

There is a link between Poland’s democratic resurgence and the robust journalism of its independent news media, making it an ideal host for the 76th World News Media Congress.

In the culturally rich city of Krakow, from 4-6 May, we will explore the ongoing transformation of news media, with Mastering Media’s New Playbook a central theme.

Through three specialist tracks and hands-on workshops, leaders of newsrooms and news organisations can explore the evolving strategies needed to build competitive and innovative spaces where essential journalism can thrive.

About the host city, Krakow

For many years, Krakow has been the premier travel destination and the most recognisable Polish city at home and abroad. It has been ranked amongst the most attractive and affordable cities in Europe for a city break, according to the annual British Post Office survey. Enjoy countless historic sites and museums, cultural festivals from film to opera, and many excellent dining venues in the charming Old Town and the scenic surroundings of Wawel Hill.

May is a fantastic time to travel to Krakow. As the temperatures start to get warmer, you can enjoy exploring the city before the summer crowds arrive. 

More than just a leisure destination, Krakow’s state-of-the-art ICE Congress Centre makes it a great venue for the World News Media Congress 2025.

With a rich cultural heritage and a dynamic modern atmosphere, Krakow offers a perfect blend of work and relaxation.
