American Spirit 2025 - US Car and Motorcycle Festival and 3rd Lithuanian BBQ and Grill Championship

July 24–26, 2025, because the largest festival for American car and motorcycle enthusiasts in Lithuania and the Baltic States, American Spirit 2025, is returning to Druskininkai Aerodrome! American Spirit is an international gathering of American car and motorcycle enthusiasts, attracting an ever-growing community of fans of American technology every year. Powerful American engines and shiny classic models will once again roar through the streets of Druskininkai, attracting the attention of every passer-by. For almost two decades, this event has been delighting participants and spectators with a wealth of entertainment, and 2025 will be no exception!


This year, the event will invite everyone to three days of fun. From July 24 to 26, the Druskininkai aerodrome will host American technology exhibitions, impressive performances, and exciting competitions under the open sky. In 2025, the American Spirit festival will be held together with the 3rd Lithuanian BBQ and Grill Championship "Ugnis šneka, dūmas šnibžda" (Fire Speaks, Smoke Whispers), so the car festival will be complemented by the aroma of delicious smoke and the flavors of the country's best grill masters. Incidentally, the soul of this BBQ championship is the well-known barbecue enthusiast Kristupas Krivickas, so participants can look forward to a high-level grilling competition. Everyone is invited to this festival – from children to seniors – and there will be entertainment and activities for everyone.


Highlights of the event

There will also be various fun competitions and games for spectators, so there won't be a dull moment.

- The thrill of competition: Car enthusiasts will test their skills in Burnout competitions, where the most powerful engine will be determined amid clouds of smoke from burning tires.

There will also be an extreme sound system challenge, dB Battle, where the highest decibel level will reign supreme!
