Imagine a landmark development poised to elevate Abuja to the global stage – a place where international conferences, exhibitions, and events come to life in unparalleled style. This vision is rapidly becoming a reality with the construction of the International Convention Centre, a project set to redefine Nigeria’s MICE (Meetings, Incentives, Conferences, and Exhibitions) landscape.

A Global Stage for Nigeria:

Ascendiing as one of the top three convention centers in the world, the International Convention Centre is not just a building; it’s a symbol of Nigeria’s ambition and growing prominence on the international scene.

A Masterpiece of Design and Functionality:

Designed to portray Abuja and Nigeria as an iconic international destination, the International Convention Centre is a masterpiece of modern architecture. Here’s a glimpse of the key components that will converge to create a truly world-class experience:

• Convention Hall: Imagine a vast, technologically advanced convention hall capable of hosting large-scale conferences, exhibitions, and events. Picture a space equipped with cutting-edge audio-visual systems, flexible configurations, and meticulous attention to detail to ensure a successful and memorable event for all participants.
• Auditorium: A platform for thought leadership and knowledge exchange, the auditorium will host lectures, presentations, and keynote speeches. Picture a comfortable and acoustically sound space designed to foster engaged interaction.
• Exhibition Halls: These expansive halls will provide a platform for showcasing a wide range of products, services, and innovations. Imagine light-filled exhibition spaces with flexible layouts to accommodate diverse needs, allowing exhibitors to showcase their offerings in a captivating and effective manner.

A Seamless Guest Experience:

Beyond the convention facilities, the International Convention Centre is designed to offer a complete and convenient guest experience. Imagine:

• Twin Hotel Complex: Two strategically located hotels, a 5-star and a 3-star, will cater to a range of guest preferences and budgets. Picture luxurious accommodations, exceptional service, and amenities designed to ensure a relaxing and comfortable stay.
• Entertainment and Retail: Unwind and explore after a busy day at the convention center. Imagine a vibrant entertainment and retail complex featuring:

A Hub of Connectivity:

The International Convention Centre prioritizes seamless accessibility and functionality. Imagine:

• Ample Parking: Dedicated parking facilities will accommodate a large number of vehicles, ensuring a convenient parking experience for visitors.

A Design for Efficiency and Comfort:

The core functions of the International Convention Centre are situated on the ground level, creating an internal piazza. Imagine a vibrant, sheltered space protected from the elements, serving as a central hub that connects all areas of the convention center. This internal piazza seamlessly integrates with the larger public piazza through staircases, ramps, and escalators. Additionally, a gallery showcasing international brands connects the internal piazza with the hotel lobby, creating a seamless and luxurious experience for guests.

A Project on the Rise:

This ambitious project, funded by the Central Bank of Nigeria (CBN), is being brought to life under the expert guidance of Asset Management Group (AMG) as Project Advisory and Construction Managers. Construction is already underway, and the completion of this landmark development is eagerly awaited.
