May is a month full of celebrations and commemorations in Lithuania and around the world. These celebrations range from national commemorations to cultural events. Here are some of the important celebrations in May:

This day marks the arrival of spring and is celebrated as an international labour holiday in many countries around the world, including Lithuania. Traditionally, various events are organised on this day to celebrate workers' rights and solidarity.

In Lithuania, Mother's Day is celebrated on the second Sunday in May. It is a celebration to honour mothers and femininity, with family members usually giving flowers and helping with household chores.

9 May is celebrated as Europe Day to mark the creation of the European Union. Various educational events, exhibitions and debates on European unity and its future are organised in Lithuania and other EU Member States to mark the occasion.

This day is important not only for Poland, but also for Lithuania, as the two countries have historically been closely linked. 3 May is commemorated as the day when the first modern constitution was adopted in Europe and the second in the world in 1791.

May also marks the start of the festival season in Lithuania, with a wide range of music, film, art and cultural festivals taking place in different cities. This is a great opportunity to experience Lithuania's cultural life and discover new artists.

Although it is not an official holiday, May is a great time for nature observation. In Lithuania, there are lots of flowers in bloom and nature becomes very colourful, so people like to spend time outdoors, in parks and surrounded by nature.
