The Musical Gardens Festival has been held in Warsaw since 2001 and usually runs throughout the whole month of July. The programme of each festival is filled with live concerts and rebroadcasts of operas and ballets from renowned theatres and music festivals: with The Metropolitan Opera, the Bolshoi Theatre and the Salzburg Festival at the forefront; as well as music films and filmed concerts.
Since the first festival, it has been held in the Grand Courtyard of the Royal Castle in Warsaw. Every year, the audience for all events combined, has then approached 30,000 spectators. Mostly faithful, accompanying the Music Gardens since the first festival. The media dubbed it the "Warsaw Summer Music Salon".
