Mark your calendars for August 30th to September 1st, as the Vilnius Sports Festival comes alive with energy and excitement! We invite you to experience the dynamic world of the Swedish sports community, Friskis&Svettis, and their innovative pop-up gym.

Did you know that the Nordic countries lead Europe in physical activity? According to the 2022 Eurobarometer, only 12% of Swedes reported not exercising at all, compared to 53% of Lithuanians. This culture of movement is deeply rooted in the Nordic tradition, supported by organizations like Friskis&Svettis, which unites hundreds of thousands of sports enthusiasts and volunteer coaches across Sweden, Norway, and beyond. Their mission? “We want you to find the form of exercise that best suits you – but, above all, we want you to find it enjoyable when you exercise!”

At the Vilnius Sports Festival, you’ll have the chance to work out with expert trainers from Sweden and Lithuania. Whether you’re new to fitness or a seasoned athlete, there’s something for everyone.  The sessions are designed to be inclusive, welcoming people of all ages and fitness levels. So why not take the first step? Come join us and see what you can achieve!

Our Lithuanian partner, the Vilnius Public Health Bureau “Vilnius sveikiau,” will also be on hand to guide you through this experience.
