Kaunas 2022 – European Capital of Culture

Kaunas and Kaunas District to Become one big European stage in 2022

It has been twelve years since a Lithuanian city was the European Capital of Culture. The grand opening of “Kaunas 2022” is scheduled for January 22, 2022; around 40 festivals, more than 60 exhibitions, more than 250 stage events, and more than 250 concerts will occur in Kaunas and Kaunas District in 2022.

Kaunas and Kaunas District have been getting ready for the most crucial cultural title of the continent for five years now – it can be said the international project has already proven to be a success. The change has taken place; the city, together with smaller towns surrounding it and the communities that make up the body and soul of Kaunas, have all activated themselves. The celebration of the uprising and creating the new history of Contemporary Capital are the key topics for 2022.
