It is the largest Old Town in Eastern Europe with an impressive complex of Gothic, Renaissance, Baroque and classical buildings.

Vilnius is also a home to Convene – the Baltic Sea Region’s leading meetings and events industry exhibition.
Incentives
The geographical centre of Europe – Lithuania, makes a great location for Incentive events at any time of the year.
