Sveika, Neringa is a sports and wellness festival held twice yearly in Neringa, in Nida each May and Juodkrante each September. The May edition opens the summer season with a Curonian Lagoon shoreline cleanup, youth sports events, a participants parade, the Nida Boat Show and an evening concert staged on a floating platform in the lagoon.
Late May brings a sports-and-wellness weekend to Nida that doubles as the town's unofficial start of summer.
What sets Sveika, Neringa apart is that it opens with civic labor rather than spectacle: the Tvarkome Kursiu marias cleanup asks residents and visitors to physically clear the lagoon shoreline before any entertainment starts, tying the festival to the everyday task of maintaining a fragile natural environment
The evening concert on a rotating floating stage in the middle of the lagoon is a rare setup on the Baltic coast, giving shorebound audiences a full view of performers without a fixed backdrop
Running the same format twice a year, in Nida and Juodkrante, effectively bookends Neringa's tourist season with matching community events
The Tvarkome Kursiu marias lagoon cleanup is the festival's founding ritual
framing the start of summer as an act of shared upkeep rather than pure celebration
The Nida Boat Show and captains market echo the town's identity as a sailing and fishing community
and the floating concert stage has become the event's visual signature
