When to Visit Vilnius

The winters in Vilnius are beautiful, but can be quite extreme, so the most popular time to visit is from April to September, when the temperatures are warm and pleasant. There are plenty of cheap flights to Vilnius available around this time of year as well. One of the most popular fairs, called the Kaziukas Fair, is held in March of each year. This is an elaborate and colourful market, filled with hand crafted goods and delicious food. People also like to visit in April for the International Poetry Festival, which consists of exhibitions, lectures, readings and concerts held throughout the city. Vilnius car hire is useful during the festival, so that you can easily reach the events across the city.
