Augalyn Fest is the largest plant-based food festival in Lithuania. It's a one-day festival about food, health, good times and loved ones. The festival grew out of the "Augalinis piknikas" (Plant-Based Picnic), held for five years, which this year is growing into a full festival. The festival's goal is to show that plant-based food can be simple, delicious and easy to fit into everyday life. Visitors can look forward to inspiring discussions, concerts, educational activities, activities for families, games, prizes, and a plant-based food area. All activities are free.
