  • get acquainted with more than 50 sports and active leisure activities;
  • try various sports in open training sessions;
  • talk with coaches and sports professionals;
  • find a suitable sports school or hobby group for their child;
  • choose an active activity for the whole family;

watch competitions, tournaments, and impressive athlete performances.

The festival is intended both for those who actively participate in sports and for those who are still looking for the right activity or want to take the first step toward a more active life.

Two spaces – countless sports opportunities

During the festival, Lukiškės Square will become an open space for the city’s sports communities. Here you will find the main stage program, sports club performances, organization presentations, training sessions, discussions, and other active activities.

The White Bridge sports field will be filled with competitions, tournaments, open training sessions, and active sports under the open sky.

More than 70 sports clubs and organizations will present more than 50 sports and active leisure activities, ensuring that every visitor finds something that suits them.

The festival is free and open to everyone.

Anniversary year – a new stage for the festival

For 15 years, the Vilnius Sports Festival has invited people to see and try sports. This year, for the first time, it will also help visitors better understand how to move more healthily, simply, and with enjoyment.

In this anniversary year, the festival enters a new stage. Alongside sports activities, training sessions, and competitions, a new content format appears in the program, helping visitors discover practical ways to make physical activity a natural part of everyday life.

Over the three festival days, visitors will enjoy an impressive program – on Friday at Lukiškės Square, the festival will open with sports club performances, the IRONVYTAS Bench Press competition, and an energetic outdoor Zumba party. On Saturday, the main stage and a unique CrossFit area will host the all‑day Lithuanian Functional Sports Championship, organization presentations, and partner performances. On Sunday, the festival will begin with a new event – the Healthy Movement Conference: Active Vilnius, followed by sports club performances and active activities until the end of the festival.

This year’s highlight – Healthy Movement Conference: Active Vilnius

The festival program will be enriched by the Healthy Movement Conference: Active Vilnius, organized together with DELFI, taking place on September 6 (Sunday) from 10:00 to 12:00 at Lukiškės Square.

It is an open, lively, and practical series of conversations about a more active life, healthy movement, and better everyday well‑being.

The conference will discuss:

  • how to start exercising without stress or unrealistic expectations;
  • how to develop healthier eating habits within the family;
  • how proper breathing can help you feel better;
  • how to change your attitude toward sport so that it becomes not an obligation but an enjoyable part of daily life.

The conference is intended not only for active athletes. We welcome families, children, parents, youth, older adults, and everyone who wants to move more, feel better, or is still searching for the right way to begin.

Sunday morning was chosen intentionally – we want to offer accessible and meaningful weekend content for the whole family. Those unable to attend at Lukiškės Square will be able to watch the conference live on DELFI.

White Bridge sports field – competitions and tournaments for three days

For all three festival days, the White Bridge sports field will become an active space for sports competitions and tournaments. On Friday, it will host the anniversary “Friends and Sports Festival” of the largest club for people with disabilities, Eik. On Saturday, visitors will gather for one of the biggest extreme sports competitions for scooter riders, skateboarders, inline skaters, and BMX cyclists in Lithuania – WHITE BRIDGE GAMES 2026, as well as the Vilnius Basketball School’s 3×3 basketball tournament. On Sunday, the season will conclude with the Ikiema.lt Vilnius Superfinal, where the strongest players from different districts of Vilnius will compete for the title of the best city “Minus” player. Throughout the weekend, the White Bridge sports field will host sports organization activities and active entertainment for the whole family.
