About

Vilnius rings in the new year fireworks-free, with a projection-mapping show on the Cathedral Bell Tower and a midnight laser display over the crowd.

Highlights

  • A video-mapping spectacle projected onto the Cathedral Bell Tower.
  • A midnight laser show in place of traditional fireworks.
  • A safe, family-friendly countdown in the heart of the Old Town.

Practical tips

  • Note there are no fireworks; the show is lights and lasers instead.
  • Arrive before 11pm to find a good spot in the square.
  • Dress very warmly; you'll be standing outside for a while.
