Why Vilnius?

Vilnius is one of the world’s best-connected cities, and offers free WiFi hotspots in hotels, venues and public spaces. Fast and readily available internet is pretty much the standard in Vilnius, and 84.7% of Lithuania can connect to 4G, making it the third-most 4G-ready country in the world and number one in Europe. Whether it’s launching a business, organising an event, getting online or meeting up, Vilnius makes it easy for you.

Vilnius charms with its labyrinthine UNESCO-listed Old Town, sleek business district, elegant city centre with many open squares and parks, and its historic suburbs. The city is compact and walkable, and its major meeting facilities, hotels, cosy restaurants and attractions are all within walking distance.

With 5,614 hotel rooms on offer, internationally acclaimed hotels, ultra-modern venues, and a new wave of uber-cool creative and co-working spaces, Vilnius is here to inspire and excite you.

Nearly half of Vilnius is made up of green spaces: 3 times more than Amsterdam, Berlin and Warsaw. Drinking water is among the cleanest in Europe and Vilnius boasts some of the cleanest air of all major EU cities.

Vilnius is rated one of the safest capitals in Eastern Europe. Plus, there’s less than a 3% risk of being harmed in a natural disaster in the city.

Despite gaining increasing popularity among business and leisure travellers, Vilnius remains one of Europe’s most affordable capitals. This means that meeting planners and their delegates can expect the superior solutions they are accustomed to at a fraction of the price. As such, the city is well positioned to offer a lot of added values to those interested in bringing their events to Vilnius.

Vilnius Old Town, with its unique cultural heritage, is among the largest in Eastern and Central Europe, and is included on the UNESCO World Heritage List. Walking around Vilnius is like walking through an open history book; with every new building comes a new story and style, and every time you turn a corner, you’re on a new page.

Whereas Vilnius rivals its European counterparts in terms of what it offers international meeting and event planners, when it comes to contemporary cultures, the city prefers to dance to the beat of its own drum. This is evident in its thriving culinary scene, diverse events calendar, and dynamic artistic community, which is always looking for new ways to inspire, innovate and collaborate with like-minded people.
