Bidders can win experiences with Programs 1, 3, and 4, as well as the “Strefa Wpływów” (“Zone of Influence”) podcast, all in support of the annual philanthropic event.

Meet & interview Andrzej Piaseczny (Program 1)

Program 1 invites the highest bidder to co-host an on-air interview with Polish singer Andrzej Piaseczny in the station’s popular show “Muzyczna Jedynka.” Joining Program 1 presenter Marcin Kusy, the winner will step behind the microphone to chat with the artist live.

A candlelit evening at Trójka (Program 3)

Program 3 (Trójka) offers a rare invitation for an intimate evening at the station, featuring:

  • A guided tour of the studio and behind-the-scenes look at Trójka’s heritage.
  • A candlelit dinner prepared by Director Agnieszka Szydłowska and Deputy Director Michał Nogaś—time to discuss radio, culture, and shared inspirations.
  • Participation in a live broadcast of Mateusz Tomaszuk’s “Off Control” to cap the night.

DJ workshop with Bert (Program 4)

Czwórka listeners can bid on a DJ workshop with station presenter Norbert “Bert” Borzym, learning:

  • Equipment setup and fundamentals of DJ technology
  • A historical background of DJing

“Strefa Wpływów” video podcast guest

Polish Radio’s political video podcast, Strefa Wpływów, is also up for auction. The winner will appear alongside Renata Grochal, Jacek Czarnecki, and Roch Kowalski to discuss current events, policy decisions, and political influence—an exclusive chance to offer questions and opinions on a professional broadcast set.

Conduct the Polish Radio Orchestra

In a grand finale, the Polish Radio Orchestra is auctioning off:

  • A conducting lesson plus the chance to lead a selected symphonic piece in a live concert at the Witold Lutosławski Concert Studio. Repertoire and date will be arranged post-auction.

All auctions end February 7 on Allegro. Once payment is complete, WOŚP will connect winners with auction donors to finalize dates and details. The 33rd Great Orchestra of Christmas Charity culminates this Sunday, continuing its tradition of nationwide goodwill.
