A short expedition to the Ignalina Nuclear Power Plant (18+)

Some places have shaped history. Others are shaping the future. The Ignalina Nuclear Power Plant is one of the few where both come together.

We invite you to embark on an extraordinary atomic adventure – an expedition to the Ignalina Nuclear Power Plant.

Once home to the world's most powerful nuclear reactors, the Ignalina Nuclear Power Plant is now the site of Lithuania's most complex environmental megaproject, carried out by Altra.

This is a unique opportunity to witness firsthand how a nuclear power plant is safely dismantled and how the nuclear legacy accumulated over several decades is being responsibly managed.

Join us to explore Lithuania's megaproject, see the progress achieved, discover how every stage of the work is carried out safely and responsibly, and get answers to all your questions! The first thing you will have to do is dress up in real, snow-white worker’s clothes. 

During the expedition, we will explore the plant's controlled area. You will have the opportunity to see how its impressive facilities and systems once operated. You will visit exclusive areas of the plant that are rarely accessible to the public, including the turbine hall, the spent fuel pool, the reactor control room, and other unique facilities. We will discuss reactor operation, the management of liquid radioactive waste, the destination of decontaminated materials, and what awaits the plant components that will continue to emit radiation for hundreds of years.

This expedition is far more than a standard guided tour – it is a unique opportunity to explore the entire nuclear energy lifecycle: from uranium mining and fuel production, through the construction and operation of a nuclear power plant, to the critically important final stage of safely managing the legacy of nuclear energy.

Important Information

·        Depending on the situation at the plant, the itinerary may be adjusted.

·        Access to the controlled area of the nuclear facility is only possible with a temporary visitor permit. The permit is issued (or declined) following a personal data verification process required by applicable legislation. When requested to provide your personal information, please respond promptly. Failure to submit the required information within the specified deadline will result in denied access to the facility, and tickets will not be refunded or exchanged. In exceptional cases, if the security screening results in a decision not to issue a permit, the full ticket price will be refunded.

·        Before embarking on the expedition, please take a responsible assessment of your health condition – during the expedition we will be walking intensively a lot, climbing stairs, and will be on our feet all the time.
