Joninės, Rasos
St. John's Day
Wednesday, 24 Jun 2026 · Lithuania · Nationwide · Public holiday
Bridge day check
Falls midweek on a Wednesday. It splits the week rather than extending the weekend, so bridging costs two days of leave either side.
What the day is for
Joninės, or Rasos, is the midsummer night of bonfires, oak wreaths and the search for the mythical fern blossom. Kernavė and the lakeside towns hold the largest gatherings and nobody sleeps much.
Do shops and banks close?
Public holiday; banks and offices close, retail patchy.
Getting around
Heavy Tuesday-night traffic out to the countryside; extra late trains to Kaunas and the coast.
When it falls each year
Floating holidays shift; fixed ones move only in which weekday they land on.
