Christmas Tree Lighting Ceremony

What if this year’s Christmas miracle needs you?

On November 27 at 6 p.m., a festive story will begin in Panevėžys’ Laisvės Square, and everyone can be a part of it.

When time stands still for a moment and the lights begin to reveal their secrets, extraordinary events will unfold in the square. What happens when light and time meet? And what does it take for a true Christmas miracle to happen? We’ll search for the answers together.

The festive evening will be accompanied by music, and one of its most anticipated moments will be the lighting of the city’s Christmas tree.


There will be plenty of activities for the little ones as well—Santa Claus will be there to listen to their dreams and take photos with them, and there will be a free fairy-tale carousel.

And the festive buzz in Laisvės Square will begin well before the tree lighting. From 12 p.m. to 10 p.m., a Christmas market will be open here, and visitors can look forward to a variety of festive entertainment.

So let’s meet at Freedom Square—after all, you never know when something magical might happen!
