Vilnius Festival

Founded in 1997 by the Lithuanian National Philharmonic Society, the Vilnius Festival takes place each summer in the capital and gathers classical music performed by soloists, chamber ensembles and symphony orchestras. A member of the European Festivals Association, it has over the years welcomed artists such as Yehudi Menuhin and Mstislav Rostropovich, remaining a highlight of Vilnius's cultural calendar.
