The "Giminės Balius" (Family Party) festival, described as the "most fun summer festival ever" by organizers "Pravalturai," buzzed with energy in Stakliškės, Prienai district. Held at the "Guosta" homestead, the event promised revelry until morning for a crowd of well-disposed compatriots.

A notable feature of the festival was the attendees' commitment to elaborate and humorous costumes. Participants embraced the festive spirit, transforming into a traditional "šakotis" cake, police officers, or road workers, adding a unique visual flair to the gathering.

The festival's entertainment lineup included performances by popular Lithuanian artists such as "Rondo," Edilija, "Delfinai," Studio Maruko, "Poliarizuoti stiklai," Kapitonas flintas, "Tautinis brandas," and "Mino." As night fell, a DJ set by "Pravalturai" kept the party going before attendees retreated to a tent city.

Guests enjoyed the festivities until Sunday at 1 p.m., when they departed after a night of music and celebration.
