West Express, one of Lithuania’s biggest travel agencies, says that it has "grown out of" the framework of the tourism, entertainment and sports fair Vivattur. The company will therefore organize its own event at the Europa shopping centre in central Vilnius. "I’m not saying that we do not want to participate in the fair. But I am not sure that our clients would like to visit the event," said Andrius Sideravicius, general director of West Express. Vivattur, he added, is more of a municipal-level fair, a place for local municipalities, tourist information centres and rural tourism associations to present themselves.
