The upcoming date with the Festival of the Sea in Klaipeda will soon attract a large fleet of sailboats to the port city. Only one month before the “History of the Long-Formed City”, the port city is expected to once again become the most visited city in Lithuania.

Liutauras Galinis, director of Klaipėdos šventės, says that this year the festival will spread not only through the old town, but also bring people who come to the beaches together.
“The Fiesta del Mar must be associated with the sea, so this year we will include the sea and the beach and we will invite everyone to actively contribute to health. We invite everyone to choose and yoga exercises. This year we will pay attention to the seniors, they will have the opportunity to perform at the Meridian. Attention will also be paid to national minorities ”, says L. Galinis.

Historical tales about the history of Klaipeda, architecture, symbols, people.
“Upon reaching Klaipeda, they will be able to travel according to the maps, and they will be able to hear unheard stories, which we believe will enrich us and allow us to take something home. The Sea Festival style was created by the same team that worked last year. A subtle and light look at the history of the city, which looks like a highway. And the closer to Klaipeda, the more we discover the signs of the sea, ”says Ž. Putnienė.
It coincided so much that this year the Maritime Port turns 30 years old. This birthday is inseparable from the Festival del Mar, so the port manager promises a lot of noise, dust and fun in the city.
Algis Latakas, head of the port authority, says that people are already being invited to various events, with the most impressive show taking place on the day of the Festival of the Sea.

On July 23, the sailboats will arrive in Klaipeda, people will be able to see those beautiful cages. It is a great pity that there was no march last year. I think it’s a great charm, so it will happen again this year. We invite many groups to travel both by land and by water. We think there has to be a lot of noise, a lot of smoke, a lot of dust that day and hopefully there will be a concert after this procession that inspires the spirit. Sisters On Wire, The Roop will perform, and we will have Thinking Kerbedis, which will hopefully come with a huge cartridge and get everyone on their feet. Well, and then to spread that blast even further, it will give off fire and light, there will be fireworks. And the next day we all go to the Dragon Race without sleeping. 37 teams of 40 have already registered, ”says A. Latakas Entertainment, which will definitely not be lacking.
According to the organizers of the event, the interpreters were chosen according to the year of life of the Port, so for the first time at the Sea Festival K. Kerbedis is the interpreter that many people have known for many years.
