Do you know what makes the 14th of August so special? Exactly ten years ago on this day, we opened the first IKEA store in Lithuania. So, there's definitely something to celebrate! And we want to share this joyful moment with you, not only because we feel a part of your home, but also because you are a great part of our history.
A fika for each year
3pm is a perfect time for a very tasty tradition we have borrowed from Swedes. It's fika, a break with hot drinks, sweets and the company that's dear to one's heart. For our 10th birthday, we are planning a celebratory fika - and not just one, but all ten of them. Come and celebrate together, enjoying different cakes and soft drinks for ten days straight!When? 11 to 20 August, 15:00.
Where? At the Swedish Restaurant.
