Discover Lithuania's Automotive Experiences

Lithuania is one of Europe's most underrated endurance racing destinations — a Baltic country that built a globally respected long-distance event from scratch. The Aurum 1006km at the Palanga street circuit has been running since 2000 and has become one of Europe's most respected endurance races, drawing serious entries from across the continent and producing genuinely competitive racing on a layout built from sections of closed public highway.

The wider scene runs on grassroots energy. Vilnius and Kaunas both have active modified import communities focused on German and Japanese platforms. Lithuania has produced one of the strongest drifting scenes in Eastern Europe, with regular meets and competitions pulling drivers from across the Baltic region. The country also runs a respected national rally championship. The seaside road through Klaipėda and Palanga, the forest routes around the Curonian Spit, and the run inland through the Aukštaitija National Park are the country's standout drives — a place where the trip itself is the point.
