KICC nominated Africa’s leading meetings and conference venue

The Kenya International Convention Centre has been nominated “Africa’s leading meetings and conference venue” for 2019 alongside six other leading African venues.

Among the six , KICC is the only Kenyan venue at the prestigious  World Travel Awards nominations.

Other Africa countries that have their venues nominated under these categories include South Africa and Rwanda among others.

The Kenyatta International Convention Centre (KICC), formerly the Kenyatta International Conference Centre, is a 28-story building located in Nairobi, Kenya.

Over the years, it has been the host of several international conferences, seminars, exhibitions and summits.

The KICC is located in the City Square of Nairobi, and is a crucial address for a number of Government offices.

It is an internationally renowned venue for conferences, meetings, exhibitions and special events within walking distance of several five star hotels.

The KICC is ranked as one of the top places to hold conferences on the continent, a feat considering its age in comparison to shinier venues and locations throughout Africa.

After completion, the building held the rank of the tallest building in Nairobi up until the construction of Teleposta Towers.

KICC CEO Nana Gecaga broke the news on her social media page asking Kenyans to bring the award home.
