I am not aware of any Thanksgiving Day get togethers, although I am sure there are some.

Many restaurants do offer similar fare for the occasion. But remember you want brukniu (billberry) sauce, not spanguoliu (cranberry) sauce unless they specify American cranberries, which people are starting to grow here and so a possibility. The native billberries taste the most like American cranberries.

Actually, there is a 'derliaus svente' (harvest festival) in some communities, but nothing on a nation-wide scale, no established customs like a turkey, stuffing, and cranberry sauce, no set date when all the communities celebrate it, or a tradition stemming from a specific event like being saved from a famine.

However, certain communities and groups, like the US embassy, do celebrate this holiday, which is why Thanksgiving Day fare is found on some menus. When celebrating the US holiday, then the name used is Padekos diena - Thanksgiving Day.
