A "Poznań" has two prominent meanings:
- Poznań is a city in west Poland, located on the River Warta in the Greater Poland region. It is one of Poland's largest cities and an important cultural, business, and academic center. Poznań has significant historical heritage and is known for landmarks such as the Renaissance Old Town, Town Hall, and Poznań Cathedral. The city also hosts the Poznań International Fair, the biggest industrial fair in Poland.
- "The Poznań" (also known as "Le Grecque") is a football (soccer) fan celebration that originated with supporters of the Polish football club Lech Poznań. During this celebration, fans link arms, turn their backs to the pitch, and jump up and down in unison while singing or chanting. It is a taunt to the opposing team, implying that the celebrating fans' team is so superior that they do not need to watch the game. This celebration has been adopted by many other football clubs' supporters across the world, including Manchester City, Celtic, Ajax, and others.
Thus, "Poznań" refers either to the Polish city or the famous football fan celebration named after the city's club.
