The young creatives from all over Europe will gather in Vilnius on the occasion of its 700th anniversary

In 1323 the Grand Duke of Lithuania Gediminas wrote a letter inviting craftsmen, merchants, knights and farmers from the Western countries to come to Lithuania. The name of Vilnius was mentioned for the first time ever, and therefore the date of this letter is considered to be the birthday of Vilnius.

The 11th edition of the Creative Express will take place in the capital of Lithuania, which will be celebrating its 700th anniversary in 2023. Therefore, in collaboration with the Art Directors Club of Europe (ADCE) and the school of advertising and creativity The Atomic Garden Vilnius, the city invites young creatives and advertising professionals from all over Europe to team up in an ad-hoc agency, crack the brief, and co-create jaw-dropping ideas to spread the word about young Vilnius in all Europe.

The list of international participants and mentors is coming with the full event agenda soon.

The Creative Express is a program organised by the ADCE designed to provide professional training and promote young European creatives. It brings together the continent’s best young art directors, copywriters and designers, to draw inspiration and new methods of learning from their international peers. Hailing from the full breadth of Europe, the attendees work together to tackle a real-world business challenge in a classroom like no other. More at www.700vilnius.lt.
