Steelwork raised on Belfast Waterfront’s extension

The 4,000 square-meter state-of-the-art extension to Belfast Waterfront Conference and Exhibition Centre, owned and managed by Belfast City Council, is well underway with steelworks now rising from the ground. Plans include doubling the size of the venue’s event space to almost 7,000 square meters.

Opening in spring 2016, demolition work was finished before the holiday season to make way for the development’s large steel structure. The main conference and exhibition hall, which has a height of 9 meters, is starting to take shape at the rear of the existing facility.

The steel structure for conference and exhibition hall 2 boasts over 700 square meters of clear span space, plus additional meeting rooms for up to 200 delegates each, and external terraces clearly become visible. The new structure will stretch across the prime riverside location taking full advantage of the city’s stunning views.

Belfast Waterfront has already made its mark on the world stage by scoring consistently highly in the AIPC Apex Award for the World’s Best Convention Centre. An additional 4,000 square meters of fully flexible exhibition, banqueting and breakout space, equipped with the latest in event technology, will make this venue a serious contender for the No. 1 position.
