Vilnius Extends Public Transport Hours, Adds Night Buses for Joninės Celebrations

Vilnius residents and visitors will have extended public transport options during the longest night of the year, Joninės (Midsummer), on the night of June 23-24. The city's public transport system will operate on weekend schedules, enhanced by night buses that will run until 4 a.m. to facilitate travel.

To manage the anticipated increase in passenger numbers during the festivities, public transport schedules have been adjusted. This aims to allow both locals and tourists to enjoy the celebrations, gatherings, and traditional Joninės activities without concern for their return journey home.

Additionally, for those attending the "Sting" concert at Kalnų Park on June 23, public transport will offer convenient access. Specifically, buses on route 6G will make extra stops at the Kalnų Park station, and trolleybuses on routes 2, 3, and 17 will have their operating hours extended.

The night buses will follow their regular schedule until 4 a.m., ensuring that various parts of the city remain accessible even late at night or after midnight. The city encourages the use of sustainable travel methods like public transport, cycling, scooters, or carpooling to reduce traffic and promote a greener environment.
