PALANGA - Palanga, a resort town on the Baltic Sea coast in Lithuania, after seeing larger than usual crowds for the past New Year’s festivities, has scrambled to draw a new goal for the rest of the winter season: more events, more publicity and more dough in the town’s coffers. Fascinated by the record-high visitor turnover for New Year’s celebrations, which attracted roughly 500,000 people at a modest estimate, Palanga event planners have revved up their efforts, eyeing record-high crowds for the resort’s annual Winter Smelt Festival on Feb. 18.

A guide to Riga’s Creative Districts
RIGA - Do we need a decent, good quality guide to find cozy bars, French-style baguette restaurants or fancy vintage shops? Definitely. Is this all about making new things and innovations? Certainly. Thus, a discussion about how to come up with pure creativity is too complicated for a single review in a newspaper. But let’s take a simple look about what exactly is in the brochure “C...

Notre Dame de Paris revives its destiny in Lithuania
KLAIPEDA - It is believed that a person can live every single moment of his or her life with the help of notes found on the keyboard. Music, like the perception of the surrounding world, lets a person learn the relations between people, about how they interact, trying to taste the full spectrum of emotions. It is even a greater satisfaction if we are allowed to look into the past, or, more prec...

German music giant brings its best hits to the Baltics
RIGA - Since its very beginning, music has served as a tool for communication. No wonder it is fairly described as a language which is understood by everybody, no matter which language music actually is in. It is just as emotional, tragic, thrilling or entertaining. This time Lithuania and Latvia are offered a great chance to enjoy the music performed by probably one of the most famous German b...

Possibly every person also has this private paradise within themselves, which comes along wherever that person goes. Some of us put these impressions to work and create art pieces.

TALLINN - Once again DocPoint returns to the cinemas of Tallinn to provide some cinematic slices of real life that usually contain more drama, intrigue and surprise than your normal Hollywood blockbuster. As expected, this year’s program is a mix of the highly political, achingly personal and riotously entertaining that should appeal to a broad audience. One of the chief highlights of...
