  Galapagai (Roko Naktys)

The annual international rock festival “Rock Nights” has deep rock culture traditions and is also the biggest rock music festival in Lithuania. The first time “Rock Nights” was held in 2003, near Plateliai lake. Bands from Latvia, Poland and Lithuania performed then. But the festival became more and more popular every year. Growing number of participants and bands from all over the world showed that rock is not dead, that Lithuanians and the audience from the Baltic region love it! Five years later “Rock Nights” had to move to a bigger place because it had expanded a lot. So the 6th “Rock Nights” invited rock lovers to a more spacious and a really amazing Zarasas Lake island in Zarasai.

Program of the “Galapagos / Rock Nights” festival anniversary is getting filled by an extraordinary amount of entertainment and activities. Few weeks ago organizers announced entertainments in the beach and today we have a list of “dry” activities.
Excluding three big stages of the festival there will also be a beach stage and not that far from it there will be zones for water and land entertainments and activities.
Activities which promote creativity will be held at special time. Vilnius College of Design will hold a few art workshops in which people will be able to make some accessories and learn peculiarities of design.
Fort the festival’s resting zone there will be specially selected sitting bags of all kinds of colours and models. “We will try to support the good atmosphere and mood of the people who will gather to the festival by all those brightly coloured sitting bags.” jested the representatives of tingis.lt.
Visitors of the resting zone will also be invited to exercise with their brains by playing checkers in a different way (pushing around soft pillows on a huge blanket).
“The Living Library” will also be open in the festival. It’s a conversation between a living book and the reader. The reader can ask the living book questions which he cares about and hear a sincere answer. Reading becomes an interactive and comfortable space to communicate.
Mobile beauty salon also expects to get some attention of the people who will arrive. There you will be able to do your hair, a temporary tattoo or get a piercing.
Furthermore, people are encouraged to take their four-legged friends to the festival, since on the second day of the festival there will be an annual dogs and their owners race held by “Beglobis” team.
