The 24th edition of independent festival of alter-native music and contemporary Baltic culture invites You to the great Summer celebration from 22 to 25 August 2024 on the fabulous wild island of Lake Dūburys, Zarasai district, North-eastern Lituania.

One of the oldest and most unique summer events in the Baltic States will complete its cycle in 2024 and will be held for the 24th and final time. For whatever has a beginning has an end, and whatever has no end cannot have a beginning… Lets meet once again in the magical reality of the Juodaragis and celebrate this long and wonderful journey in the best way!

Surrounded by beautiful nature, music will be played on several stages of the festival, with exceptional performances by Lituanian and foreign bands during four days and nights. Recalling the long history of “Mėnuo Juodaragis” the music program would be very special and varied – from raging rock to post-folk, from metal to shamanic journeys, from deep acoustic calm to experimental cosmic electronica. “Mėnuo Juodaragis” is filled with a living heathen spirit, conveying the deep roots of traditions and mythology in the modern time of life and creativity, in the projection of future.

In the MJR XXIV program: • Yard of old and new crafts • Informative lectures, educations, hikes • Film presentations • Baltic heritage, rites and spells • Sports tournaments • Workshops • Art projects and exhibitions • Program for children and the whole family • And many other things. Everybody, both young and old, will find their own ways and unique experiences here.
