With the theme of the Mėnuo Juodaragis being Fire – the performance of the band Ugniavijas (eng. Whirl-Fire) is essential, indispensable and inevitable! Originally formed at the MJR Festival in 2009, this year the folklore group of strong voiced men is celebrating its 15th birthday. A fiery surprise awaits the audience – the launch of Ugniavijas fourth studio album! The performance will not only feature great songs and beautiful visuals, but also unique atmosphere – the concert will take place on the opening night of the festival at the Eglynas Stage. We invite you to jointly celebrate both the beginning of the festival and the birthday of Ugniavijas!
