If memory serves - vlc is in Ubuntu's "Universe" repository.
Have you added/enabled the Universe repository yet?
If not, you can enable it using:

sudo add-apt-repository universe

Once the universe repo is enabled, it will remain enabled in the future (unless you ever decide to remove/disable it).
Next you will need update your packages lists:

sudo apt update

Then you should be able to install vlc:

sudo apt install vlc

I hope this helps!

Glad to have helped.
BTW - I forgot to mention this in my previous post, but aside from the main repository and the universe repository, Ubuntu has several other repos containing different types of software.

Rather than explaining it here, see this page:
