contents Measurements of quarkonia production in peripheral and ultraperipheral heavy-ion collisions are sensitive to photon-photon and photon-nucleus interactions, the partonic structure of nuclei, and the mechanisms of vector-meson production. In this contribution, quarkonium measurements with the highest precision currently accessible will be compared with the latest theoretical models. Additionally, new studies of $ρ(770)$ and $ϕ(1020)$ vector meson production at forward rapidity will be presented and contrasted with other experimental results. Future UPC measurements with the upgraded LHCb detector in Run 3 will also be discussed.
