ExpressVPN expands to 214 VPN server locations

Our broadest network to date now spans 113 countries, with more local connection choices in the places people live, work, travel, and go online.

Geography shapes more of your online experience than most people realize. A banking app asks for another check. Search results look like they belong to another city. A site sends you to the wrong regional page. The internet often looks global from the outside, but using it is a local experience.

Apps, services, payment systems, and content libraries can all respond differently depending on where your connection appears to begin.

That’s why ExpressVPN is expanding to 214 distinct, app-selectable VPN server locations across 113 countries, the broadest network in our history. New locations include Nuuk, Lagos, Doha, Valencia, Manchester, and more—expanding reach across multiple continents including Europe, Africa, the Middle East, and North America. The rollout follows our expansion to servers in all 50 U.S. states and brings the same local approach to a global map.

What 214 locations actually unlocks

Where your VPN connection appears to come from shapes more than just the privacy headline. It affects how nearby a route feels, which local services recognize you, and how much control you have when a specific region matters to what you're doing.

For years, VPN providers have often highlighted total server count as a measure of network size. But as we've explained before, server count alone doesn’t tell the whole story. What matters more is the breadth of locations available to users and the number of distinct connection points they can actually choose from when they open the app.

ExpressVPN's expanded network gives users more answers to those questions. In the U.K., users can choose from Docklands, East London, London, Manchester, the Midlands, Tottenham, and Wembley. In Australia, the list includes Adelaide, Brisbane, Melbourne, Perth, Sydney, Sydney 2, and Woolloomooloo. In Japan, users can choose Osaka, Shibuya, Tokyo, and Yokohama. In Singapore, the network includes CBD, Jurong, and Marina Bay.

The U.S. map is even more local. Alongside major hubs such as New York, Los Angeles, Chicago, Dallas, Miami, San Francisco, Seattle, Atlanta, and Washington, D.C., the network includes regional choices like Anchorage, Billings, Boise, Burlington, Cheyenne, Fargo, Little Rock, Omaha, Providence, Sioux Falls, Wichita, and Wilmington.

That density has practical value. Nearby locations can help reduce latency. Additional regional options provide alternatives when one route is busy, unreliable, or a poor fit for a specific app or service. And when people no longer use a VPN only for occasional privacy (when they keep it on while working, streaming, shopping, banking, gaming, and moving between home networks, mobile networks, airports, hotels, cafes, and offices), a denser map makes the connection feel natural in the background.

More locations with clear standards

Expanding a VPN network into more places requires more than adding names to a list. Each location has to meet the standards people expect from ExpressVPN, including speed, reliability, privacy, and security.

Most ExpressVPN locations have the physical server and the registered IP address in the same country. In a small number of markets, ExpressVPN uses virtual server locations. These locations provide an IP address registered to the selected country while the physical server operates elsewhere, typically in a nearby country with infrastructure that meets ExpressVPN’s standards.

That distinction is important, and ExpressVPN lists every virtual location transparently on its website and support pages. The approach allows users to choose connection points in places where secure, reliable physical infrastructure may be limited, while maintaining the performance and security standards behind the service.

The same privacy foundation on a larger scale

Every new location in this expansion runs on ExpressVPN’s TrustedServer technology. TrustedServer is ExpressVPN’s RAM-only server architecture, designed so that data is written to volatile memory rather than hard drives and wiped with every reboot.

Each restart loads a fresh software image, helping ensure that servers run the intended stack every time. ExpressVPN also keeps no activity logs and no connection logs, and its privacy and security claims have been reviewed through independent audits.

How to access the new connection points today

The new locations are available in the ExpressVPN app. To see them, update the app to the latest version, open the location picker, and browse the expanded country and city list. Choose a specific location manually, search by name, or use the app’s recommended option to connect quickly.
