• Ceremony – September 28: Interfaith event with the Lord Provost, held at Garnethill Synagogue

• Music & Performance: In cooperation with the Royal Conservatoire of Scotland

• Children’s Activities: Special service and celebration of Jewish heritage (date TBC)

Events run until after Sukkot (6–8 October), ensuring a vibrant and inclusive program for all ages.

The International festival of Jewish culture “SHALOM IN ALL THE WORLD” says “Shalom” to Klaipeda once again.

Despite our deep disappointment that both the Mayor of Klaipeda and the Lithuanian Council of Culture decided not to allocate any funding for the festival whatsoever, we remain absolutely committed to bringing the festival once again to the citizens of Klaipeda this year.
So, during the festival Jewish music and culture will be celebrated and performed at the highest professional level. Of course, due to this lack of financial support at local and national level, our options will be limited and some of our anticipated events will be unable to take place. Furthermore, the festival team will work on a purely voluntary basis, without any payment.

Numerous events for students throughout the week will take place at the Elementary School "Mladost", Osijek
