Great video! LT has such rich and wonderful taditions! Keep the alive!
last sunday of every month free museum entrance.
It's not so much a festivity, but I think if All Souls day is included, then January 12-13 is also important for Lithuanians and we commemorate the day by lighting bonfires in Vilnius or candles by windowsills
Does the Song Festival in Kalny Parkas require tickets? Assigned seats?

It's still too early, most likely it will be ticketed (the last event was with tickets). It would be good to check their website in spring: dainusvente.lt

Just wanted to mention that they started ticket sales for the festival if it’s still relevant to you
Great topic for a video. Unfortunately, it makes me homesick. 😉 Labai ačiū!

@Karolinute1 Ačiū, I agree with you. Sommer is coming, and it's time to return. 😉
How we can applying for the visa
My biological mother is Lithuanian but I never knew her. She lives in Lithuania but I live in England. I pretty much know nothing about Lithuania and it makes my heart hurt. I wish I could find her. I know that she is or was a nurse but not much else.
