Manfredas is a central figure in Vilnius’ nightlife, whose influence helped shape the city into an unexpected global clubbing hotspot. Originally from a small Lithuanian town, his move to Vilnius led to residencies at legendary venues like Gravity and later Opium, where he launched Smala, a defining party series. His international reputation grew through eclectic DJ sets and bold productions, including the genre-blurring live project Santaka with drummer Marijus Aleksa.
In 2021, he founded Radio Vilnius, an experimental music platform that’s grown into a label and soon-to-be FM station. After Smala ended, he and Ivan Smagghe launched Dresden – a globe-trotting party series and cultural experiment spanning festivals like Glastonbury, Sonar, and Wonderfruit.
Whether behind the decks, on stage, or curating soundwaves, Manfredas continues to push boundaries – always searching for new sonic experiences and sharing them with open-minded audiences worldwide.
