The bohemian Užupis district in Vilnius

About

On April Fool's Day the bohemian Užupis district 'reopens its borders', stamping passports at the bridges and filling its streets with art, music and gentle anarchy.

Highlights

  • Mock border checkpoints on the bridges stamp 'Užupis' into your passport.
  • Street art, music and the famously playful Užupis constitution on full show.
  • A different tongue-in-cheek theme dreamed up each year.

Practical tips

  • Bring your real passport (or any booklet) for a souvenir Užupis stamp.
  • Explore the constitution wall, the Angel of Užupis and the riverside cafes.
  • Embrace the absurd spirit; this is Vilnius's most playful day out.
