Qatar National Convention Centre

Serving as a focal point in welcoming international guests in the Middle East, a sustainable, high-performance approach motivated the convention center design, which resulted in a facility that was smart, hyper-functional and, in turn, sustainable.

The exhibition space boasts the first-of-its-kind operable ceiling/rigging grid that allows for variable heights, configurations and super-efficient rigging execution. This grid allows the spaces to adjust quickly and with ease. Controllable skylights allow daylight when desired and blackout conditions when needed.

Sustainable elements, coupled with state-of-the-art touch-screen technology, unique breakout meeting areas and direct access to the building from a light rail station, have resulted in an iconic, unconventional and accessible space to host international events.

Since opening in 2011, the Qatar National Convention Centre has won numerous awards and come to host some of the largest and most prestigious conferences in the world. Regarded internationally as one of the most beautiful, efficient and technologically-advanced exhibition centers in the world, the venue is also one of the most sustainable and was awarded LEED Gold Certification in 2012.
