Open call
We are launching an open call for artists and organizations to apply for the International Vilnius Light Festival, which will take place January 23–25, 2026.
“In a New Light” – an expression familiar to almost everyone.
During the Vilnius Light Festival, our capital shines in a new light each and every time. Light fills surprising and undiscovered corners of the Old Town, transforming its buildings and piercing the sky. What will your light reveal?
Introduce your own vision of light to the city of Vilnius and its visitors.
Project proposals are not limited to a specific topic.
We assess:
- artistic idea, originality;
- technical implementation possibilities (clearly presented information about the assembly, disassembly, and display of the project);
- resistance of materials and equipment chosen for the project to harsh weather conditions: snow, rain, wind;
- detail and validity of the estimate;
- synergy between the project and the urban environment;
- musical soundtrack.
Light must be the main and integral means of expression of the projects – various light sources and/or reflective materials.
The open call is valid until May 30, 2025.
