Description:

Now this is a real festival and a signature line up.

No fillers. No small print.

No bullshit.

A venue says a lot about a festival. We will never forget how we got here. That is also what #mybloodyfestival is all about. Don’t hide the madness. Escape from tomorrow.
Be there, grow free, or have a damn good alibi.

Every moment matters to us – that’s why we have carefully selected the names who carry the flag of today’s music. From post punk to soft indie music heroes, from electronic legends to experimental music icons. Every name represents modernity and leads this generation.

The identity of the 8 Festival is reflected in its programming choices, limited capacity, brand reputation, city that is almost 700 years young, and #mybloodyfestival hashtag. It’s in 8 Days Week’s DNA to seek out rising talents and the best new music out there.

Lukiškės Prison complex was constructed in 1905. Since then, it had served as the biggest and most modern prison in the Russian Empire. It was finally closed in 2019. The notorious prison in the center of Vilnius, inhabited by more than 350 artists. Lukiškės Prison 2.0 already became the facilitator of live music, modern art, design, and culture.

It is not just a new or better version of the prison.

It’s a lot more.
