Throughout the title-holding year of the Capital of Culture, a great many unique projects, festivals, and events were launched in Kaunas. Some have already become integral to the city’s identity, while others present opportunities for establishing new traditions in Kaunas and its surrounding region. Our aim is for the city’s offer of cultural experiences to continue delighting residents and visitors alike, with the memory of the Capital of Culture titular year enduring long into the future. We consider it important for event attendees to recognize that various initiatives, realized over the past five years, have been created in celebration of one of the most significant cultural achievements in Kaunas’s history. We are excited about seeing culture grow and expand in our city, and about the legacy of Kaunas 2022 lasting in a transformed, thriving, and contemporary city.

In various descriptions, press releases, interviews (TV, radio, print), social media, and other communication channels, we acknowledge that a project, a festival, or an event was created during the “Kaunas – European Capital of Culture 2022”, or Kaunas 2022, years.
