VILNIUS LIGHT FESTIVAL \u2192 25 – 28 01 2024<\/h3>\n

The Festival of Light in Vilnius, Lithuania, will present its fifth edition. On this occasion, it will celebrate the city’s 700th birthday through modern light installations, new media art and a synthesis of architecture and light transforming the Old Town and the central part of the city. The festival lasts three days and this year will focus on the theme of the future. The central site, which has also become part of the visual identity of the festival, is the Vilnius TV Tower, which is visible from almost every part of the capital and is even included among the world’s most visited tallest buildings.<\/p>\n
