VENUE OVERVIEW
Prepare to experience a conference location like no other, right in the heart of Dublin. Positioned in Spencer Dock on the banks of the River Liffey, The Convention Centre Dublin is Ireland’s new world-class, purpose-built international conference and event venue. The landmark building was designed by Pritzker award-winning Irish architect Kevin Roche, and features a stunning glass fronted atrium running the full height of the building – giving visitors panoramic views of the River Liffey, Dublin city center and the Wicklow mountains. This contemporary 21st century venue was designed to meet the highest standards of environmental sustainability, including choice of construction materials, such as concrete with a zero carbon footprint and long-term operational management, particularly in the areas of energy usage and waste management. Step outside The CCD and you will find a host of local services, such as restaurants, cafes, pubs, shops, hotels, post offices and banking facilities, Dart & Luas stops.
