The Central Business District (abbreviated Vilnius CBD) is a rapidly developing business district in Šnipiškės eldership of Vilnius, Lithuania. It is Lithuania's most important business district and the largest of its kind in the Baltic States.

Between 2000 and 2018, more than 480,000 square metres (5,200,000 sq ft) of floor area was added to Vilnius CBD. Most of the growth occurred after 2010, with intense growth continuing after 2020. Since 2022, Vilnius has been experiencing a large influx of foreign professionals, many of whom work in the CBD.

This area is called Naujasis miesto centras and abbreviated Vilniaus NMC in Lithuanian. The White Bridge connects the area with the Naujamiestis eldership. Vilnius government has created a virtual 3D map of the area where present and future buildings can be seen.
