History

The Vilnius Forum was established on 9 January 2016, and in 2018, when forums in other cities appeared, it merged into the National Forum.[4] It participated in the 2019 European Parliament elections as the Public Election Committee "Vytautas Radžvilas: Let's Get the State Back!", but did not win seats.

It got 2.21 per cent of the votes in the multi-member constituency vote in the 2020 parliamentary election and failed to win any single-member constituencies. Due to this, the party is not represented on national level politics.

In the 2023 municipal elections, it won 3 seats on the municipal council of Vilnius City Municipality.
