SPOT'25
For the eighth time, the international street art festival SPOT is coming to Vilnius from July 10 to 13. Organized by the Arts Printing House, the festival brings art into the city’s public spaces and invites locals and visitors to see Vilnius in a creative way. This year’s theme is simple but powerful — in the city, you are never alone! We are especially interested to see TAPE THAT (Hands down circus) - a charming, non-verbal acrobatic duet who construct a visual world using colourful tape, object manipulation and partner acrobatics!

International Exhibition “Queens, Realms, and Emotions”
This international exhibition brings together history, art, and design to tell the powerful stories of two remarkable women from Vilnius—Barbara Radziwiłł and Catherine Jagiellon—who became queens of Poland and Sweden nearly 500 years ago. Through authentic historical objects, modern artworks, and immersive storytelling, visitors will explore the queens’ cultural legacy, the role of women in shaping history, and the enduring impact of dynasties across Lithuania, Poland, and Sweden. For the first time, rare artifacts from European museums will be displayed in Lithuania, and the exhibition will later travel to Sweden, connecting the past with the present and showing how these legends continue to inspire creators today.
Where? House of Histories, T. Kosciuškos st. 3
When? When museum is open

A must-do experience in Vilnius is joining one of our guided walking tours led by knowledgeable local guides. This summer we introduce two new ways to discover Vilnius and Lithuania!
Trakai Tour by Train
Photo by Vilnius with Locals
Take part in an eco-friendly adventure to Trakai – a charming town rich in history, culture, and natural beauty. Only 30 minutes by train from Vilnius, it’s an ideal choice for travelers who care about the planet. We choose walking over driving, support small local businesses, and aim to reduce waste, making sure our visit leaves a light footprint. Along the way, our professional guide will tell you about the local geography, nature, and some of the wildlife that lives in the Trakai region. You’ll also hear stories about the Karaim people – a small community that has come to Trakai from Crimea and lived here for centuries. Don't hesitate to explore Trakai like a local!
When? Every Thursday

How much? 45€/person online booking only
Audio tour in Užupis
Vilnius with locals photo
This is a new project we’re really excited about! Instead of adjusting your plans to fit our tour schedule, you can explore Užupis at your own time and pace – and still learn everything locals would love you to know. The tour is presented as a fun and engaging conversation between a local guide, Indrė, and a curious traveler, Milda. As you discover Užupis' public art, you’ll hear stories about how this unique area has attracted artists, dreamers, and free spirits from around the world. While walking toward the Fluxus Bridge – where the tour ends – you’ll learn not only about the streets of this small “nation,” but also about its creative and open-minded way of life.
When? 24/7
