Festival motto
Discover Lithuania through music
Seven Lithuanian municipalities invite you to travel through the country listening to music — from lakeshores to small-town squares. We welcome locals to rediscover their own country, and international guests to discover Lithuania through live concerts in some of its most beautiful places.
For international guests
Every concert is free and open to all. The route invites travellers to spend a few days seeing the real Lithuanian countryside — lakes, forests and small towns — with live music as the thread.
