Do you want to see the palms contest in the country with no palms? (no, WE will not take you to Aleje Jerozolimskie to show you the The Charles de Gaulle Roundabout.)

Warsaw VIP Events invites you for the picturesque excursion out of Warsaw, to Łyse, where the national, yearly, palms contest takes place.

And here is what former President of Poland says to “The News”

"It's no coincidence that countless people from across Poland came to Lyse today, including the president and his wife,” Komorowski said. “Because it's worth feeling the special relationship between folk culture and national culture,” he said. Owing to the lack of authentic palms in Poland in times past, a custom emerged of creating home-made alternatives, typically fashioned from wicker, dried flowers and ribbons. A contest to build the most beautiful palm has been held in the village of Lyse since 1969"

A bit of explanation:

Łyse – is a village in Poland, situated in the Masovian Voivodeship, in Ostrołęka County, by the road 645 between Myszyniec and Nowogród. It lies approximately 34 kilometres (21 mi) north of Ostrołęka and 133 km (83 mi) north of Warsaw.

Every year a Palm Sunday (the week before Easter) festival is celebrated here. The highlight of the festival is a contest for the most beautiful palm. Traditionally, the hand-made flowers of the palm are begun at the beginning of Lent.

During the festival, one can experience Kurpiowski traditions by, among others: Kurpiowski wycinanki, folk music and dance, and tasting bread slices with lard and pickles.
