December in Kaunas, as in the whole of Lithuania, is traditionally full of various cultural events, celebrations and concerts related to the upcoming Christmas and New Year. While I cannot give specific details of this year's events, here is what you can usually expect during this period:

Christmas Concerts A number of Christmas concerts are usually held throughout the city, including churches, concert halls and cultural centres. This can include classical concerts, choir performances and performances of traditional and contemporary Christmas music.

As the New Year approaches, concerts are organised in Kaunas to say goodbye to the old year and welcome in the new. These events often take place in the city's squares and other public places and are crowned with a fireworks show.

City events Kaunas City Council and other organisations can organise a wide range of cultural events in December, including music festivals and special festive projects featuring both local and international performers.

Concert halls and theatres The Kaunas State Philharmonic, Kaunas State Music Theatre and other cultural institutions offer a rich programme of concerts and performances in December. This is a great opportunity to see high-level classical music, opera, ballet and theatre performances.

Live music Kaunas music clubs and bars also contribute to the festive season by organising concerts featuring local and visiting artists. This can be a great opportunity to enjoy a more intimate music experience.
