I'm leaving tonight, and expect to arrive in Gdansk on a Lot flight from
Frankfurt at 1715 on Tuesday, July 6. I have no problem with taking a
taxi, and will do so (with luggage) to the Philarmonic when I get there,
unless I receive different instructions.

Hi guys,
I am not on the official logistics team so I cannot tell you exactly
where to go when you arrive. But I can give you a little bit of
general gdansk travel information:
1) the venue is the Baltic Philharmonic, Polska Filharmonia Bałtycka
im. Fryderyka Chopina .
2) the various hotels are scattered around the city (all within a
fairly close radius to the venue however)
3) here's a map:

which personally I would print out the central part of so as to have
something to show a taxi driver.
A taxi from the airport to this part of the city costs about 50pln.
(15USD, 12 Euro). At night it will be more expensive: 65pln. There is
a bus between the airport & the railway station (Gdansk Glowny), but
that overshoots where you want to be in the old city
(

The Gdansk airport is small! It is only a few gates. So you won't get
hopelessly lost. Basically, you get off the plane, go through
immigration (or not, you'll likely be coming on a transfer flight from
another EU country), claim your luggage, walk out the door and there
are the taxis. Then it's about 8km into central gdansk.
