Lenexpo

Lenexpo is an exhibition complex on Vasilyevsky Island by the Gulf of Finland with multiple large halls and outdoor spaces for presentations and trade shows. The site sits near the waterfront and uses its location to accommodate different types of events and displays.

The complex was built in the 1960s on reclaimed land as part of Soviet expansion and began operations with major events. Its construction reflected a period when Leningrad was developing new public spaces for gatherings and exhibitions.

The name references Lenin and the Soviet past that shaped the city, a history visible in the surroundings and architecture today. Visitors walking through the area notice how the waterfront location and industrial heritage influence the character of the neighborhood.

The venue is easy to reach by public transport and provides ample space for walking and visitor movement. Proximity to the waterfront means that weather and seasons can affect the visiting experience.

The waterfront location allows boats and ships to be displayed and tested directly in the water during maritime events. This capability makes the venue particularly valuable for the maritime industry.
