Renovated over the summer, the venue is now even cozier and more comfortable for supporters gathering to watch Vilnius away games.<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"ng-star-inserted\"><strong class=\"ng-star-inserted\"><span class=\"ng-star-inserted\">More space and more screens<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n<p class=\"ng-star-inserted\"><span class=\"ng-star-inserted\">While Rytas Vilnius players were gearing up for the new campaign, the team\u2019s embassy was buzzing with activity of its own. In August, tables, lighting, TV setups, and even the flooring were upgraded. OlyBar Sports Bar stepped into the 2026\u20132027 season boasting twice the seating capacity, 12 TV screens, and far greater flexibility to catch any broadcast you want.<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"ng-star-inserted\"><strong class=\"ng-star-inserted\"><span class=\"ng-star-inserted\">Only three colors in my heart<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n<p class=\"ng-star-inserted\"><span class=\"ng-star-inserted\">Vilnius supporters will feel even more at home in the embassy. This summer, one of the main walls was decorated with a large-scale photograph capturing a sea of fans in black, white, and red, displayed alongside two championship trophies won by the team. Just like last season, official club merchandise is available for purchase on-site\u2014including jerseys, hoodies, scarves, and keychains\u2014while imagery of past and present club stars lines the walls.<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"ng-star-inserted\"><strong class=\"ng-star-inserted\"><span class=\"ng-star-inserted\">Kitchen updates<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n<p class=\"ng-star-inserted\"><span class=\"ng-star-inserted\">The Rytas Vilnius embassy greeted autumn with an expanded menu featuring dishes such as chicken schnitzel, salmon steak, and a succulent 1 kg pork knuckle. Every Sunday features all-you-can-eat mussels for just 15 euros per person, while the Rytas Vilnius snack platter is the recommended pairing for game night. On Tuesdays, OlyBar Sports Bar offers all-you-can-eat chicken wings for 14.90 euros, while Wednesdays are dedicated to Liter Day, offering a liter of OLY beer for 5 euros. For maximum convenience, ordering or calling a server is simple\u2014just scan the QR code located on every table.<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"ng-star-inserted\"><strong class=\"ng-star-inserted\"><span class=\"ng-star-inserted\">A passion for all sports<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n<p class=\"ng-star-inserted\"><span class=\"ng-star-inserted\">During this year\u2019s renovation of OlyBar Sports Bar, significant attention was devoted not only to Rytas Vilnius, but to the broader love of sport. The bar\u2019s pillars are now decorated with silhouettes representing various athletic disciplines, and a dedicated memorabilia shelf showcases collectibles from football, basketball, tennis, martial arts, volleyball, ice hockey, and running. Notable highlights include running shoes from ultrarunner Aleksandr Sorokin, an autograph from NBA legend Gary Payton, and a signed jersey from Jonas Valan\u010di\u016bnas, who began his career in the Rytas Vilnius system.<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"ng-star-inserted\"><strong class=\"ng-star-inserted\"><span class=\"ng-star-inserted\">Kicking off the season in style<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n<p class=\"ng-star-inserted\"><span class=\"ng-star-inserted\">To ring in the new campaign, the Rytas Vilnius embassy hosted a special meet-and-greet on September 30. Several hundred fans attended, taking the chance to chat with the players, collect autographs, and enjoy an entertaining live Q&amp;A. While we look forward to seeing everyone in the arena for home games, we invite you to catch every away fixture at OlyBar Sports Bar, where the atmosphere, the trophies, and the menu make it a true second home for Rytas Vilnius supporters.<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"ng-star-inserted\"><strong class=\"ng-star-inserted\"><span class=\"ng-star-inserted\">Rytas Vilnius away fixtures through 2026:<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n<p class=\"ng-star-inserted\"><span class=\"ng-star-inserted\">10.13 | 21:00 | Nanterre 92 \u2013 Rytas Vilnius<\/span><br class=\"ng-star-inserted\" \/><span class=\"ng-star-inserted\">10.17 | 16:50 | \u0160iauliai \u2013 Rytas Vilnius<\/span><br class=\"ng-star-inserted\" \/><span class=\"ng-star-inserted\">10.21 | 18:00 | Taurag\u0117 \u2013 Rytas Vilnius<\/span><br class=\"ng-star-inserted\" \/><span class=\"ng-star-inserted\">10.25 | 16:50 | Juventus \u2013 Rytas Vilnius<\/span><br class=\"ng-star-inserted\" \/><span class=\"ng-star-inserted\">11.07 | 16:50 | Lietkabelis \u2013 Rytas Vilnius<\/span><br class=\"ng-star-inserted\" \/><span class=\"ng-star-inserted\">11.15 | 19:10 | Jonava \u2013 Rytas Vilnius<\/span><br class=\"ng-star-inserted\" \/><span class=\"ng-star-inserted\">11.18 | 18:50 | Nev\u0117\u017eis \u2013 Rytas Vilnius<\/span><br class=\"ng-star-inserted\" \/><span class=\"ng-star-inserted\">12.06 | 16:50 | \u017dalgiris \u2013 Rytas Vilnius<\/span><br class=\"ng-star-inserted\" \/><span class=\"ng-star-inserted\">12.09 | 19:00 | Trabzonspor \u2013 Rytas Vilnius<\/span><br class=\"ng-star-inserted\" \/><span class=\"ng-star-inserted\">12.19 | 16:50 | Garg\u017edai \u2013 Rytas Vilnius<\/span><br class=\"ng-star-inserted\" \/><span class=\"ng-star-inserted\">12.22 | 19:00 | Sabah \u2013 Rytas Vilnius<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"ng-star-inserted\"><strong class=\"ng-star-inserted\"><span class=\"ng-star-inserted\">OlyBar Sports Bar<\/span><\/strong><br class=\"ng-star-inserted\" \/><span class=\"ng-star-inserted\">Konstitucijos ave. 20, Vilnius<\/span><br class=\"ng-star-inserted\" \/><span class=\"ng-star-inserted\">Table reservations: +37066508538<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Bearing the title of official Rytas Vilnius embassy since the autumn of 2025, OlyBar Sports Bar invites fans to enjoy live sports broadcasts in a newly upgraded space.
