THE SEA FESTIVAL COMES TO TOWN - THE GRAND SEA FESTIVAL PARADE! In 2026, the Sea Festival invites you to look at Klaipėda as an authentic open-air cinema pavilion - a city-film set where real stories have been created and real heroes have lived from the very beginning: captains, fishermen, sea rescuers, shipbuilders, artists, and travelers. The Grand Sea Festival Parade - one of the most important and anticipated events of the festival - will this year become a living film frame moving through the city from the first to the last minute. This year's parade, inspired by the theme "Like in a Movie", will create its own stories - from maritime Hollywood and a premiere-worthy glow to adventures at sea and legendary characters. Route: start – J. Janonio g., Herkaus Manto g., Naujojo Sodo g., Naujoji Uosto g., Pilies tiltas, Pilies g. to Kruizinių laivų terminalas. Presentation of parade participants – after Pilies tiltas.
