Reconstruction of the First Litexpo Building

The central palace of the Lithuanian Exhibition and Congress Centre “Litexpo”, surrounded by greenery, has been standing since 1980. Designed by the architect Edmundas Franciškus Stasiulis in a classical style, it was a relic of modern Lithuania that architect Rolandas Palekas was determined to renovate. The creator says that the building is like a piece of music that sounds anew each time a different performer touches the notes.

The visually pleasing architectural appearance remains almost the same as it was at the end of the last century. Only a keen observer can notice the changed facade details, and signs of modern thinking can be seen in the interior design solutions.

During the reconstruction, a part of the palace partitions was dismantled, part of the walls was demolished, technologically advanced heating, ventilation, air conditioning, and electrical systems were installed, and the most important needs of people with disabilities were taken care of.

The first “Litexpo” palace has become a modern space not only for exhibitions and fairs but also for concerts, performances, and film shoots for television projects.

Reborn but preserving the spirit of the late 20th century, the “Litexpo” building continues to open its doors to various events and is an attractive, renewed relic of that time.
