People from 140+ countries call Vilnius home - and that’s what makes this city truly international. We’re celebrating this diversity with the biggest international community celebration in town - "Vilnius is my city". Everyone is welcome, and entry is free.
This year, we’re adding something special – the Vilnius Is My City Awards, celebrating international residents who, through their work and talent, have made our city even more vibrant, diverse, and globally inspiring. See you there!
Event Highlights
The main event spaces that bring different cultures and traditions a little closer together. This year, we’re not just showing up - we’re sitting down together. One table. Many cultures. The international community at the center of it all.
Full programme coming in August
Vilnius Is My City Awards 2026
The Vilnius Is My City Awards are the city’s way of thanking those Vilnius residents who not only came here from abroad and successfully settled in, but who, through their work and talent, have made our city even more renowned, more diverse, and richer.
