Having preserved its long-standing traditions, the cheerful and popular "Primmosios vagas" festival will shake the fields again on April 27 in the village of Kailinii, in the Veisiei district, in the Lazdija district. You will be waiting for the ceremony of the beginning of plowing, plowing competition, competition of plowing teams, education "How a furrow is born", chariot races. Jurginii's egg omelette and various dishes prepared by the rustic "Užeiga" will help to satisfy your hunger . Everyone who wants to can take part in the "Bread baking" education, and you can buy handmade products at the spring market. Folk music band "Ratilai" will invite you to a wild dance. All these and more attractions await you who come this Saturday to celebrate the start of the spring working year.

We want to be happy that the tradition of plowing with horses in the Lazdija region this year was included in the list of intangible cultural heritage values, so this is another reason to come to this great festival, which makes the Lazdija region famous throughout Lithuania!

Everyone is invited - residents of the area, guests who are indifferent to plowing traditions, horses and those who like a good time in a group of friends.

Let's meet in Veisiei!
