The Libreville Arena & Convention Centre, located within the Champ Triomphal Masterplan in Libreville, Gabon, aims to establish a mixed-use center that serves as a catalyst for advancing and promoting Gabon as a major attraction in Central Africa.
The architectural design concept focuses on creating high-quality architectural and urban environments with an eco-responsible approach. The center is designed to blend the local and visitor communities of all generations in harmony across two distinct zones: the Convention Zone and the Accommodation Zone.
The Convention Centre features a multifunctional Arena with 5,156 seats, alongside a Presidential Hall, Auditorium, and associated facilities, all situated above an elevated public cultural plaza. The complex also includes plans for one 5-star hotel and one 3-star hotel.
The Libreville Arena & Convention Centre is designed to offer an extended and elevated public zone for hosting multidisciplinary cultural events, with a unique view of the ocean. The center aims to create a seamless experience with its iconic design, blending technology and contemporary cultural activities in Gabon.
