The Copernicus Cup is held in Torun, Poland, on the 200m track that hosted the SOPOT 2014 World Indoor Champs. Polish fans are totally into the sport, and they get into the indoor track. This writer, your editor, visited Torun in 2019 for the Copernicus Cup.
Some really exciting races!
You should be able to find the meeting on YouTube, as I will tonight!
