CCIB - Centre de Convencions Internacional de Barcelona

Inaugurated in 2004 for the Universal Forum of Cultures, the Barcelona International Convention Centre (CCIB) has become one of Europe's leading venues for hosting events.

Located in a privileged area of the modern, cosmopolitan city of Barcelona, the Centre sits within the city's technology and business district known as 22@.

The CCIB consists of two architecturally significant buildings: the Convention Centre and the Forum Auditorium, connected by an underground walkway. With a gross surface area of 100,000 sqm and a capacity for up to 15,000 delegates, both buildings stand out for their size, natural light, and the versatility of their spaces.

Designed by renowned Catalan architect Josep Lluís Mateo, the Convention Centre was conceived to maximize natural light. All rooms benefit of daylight, and the façade was designed to minimize the visual impact on the urban surroundings.
This is a flexible, multifunctional building featuring 39 open-plan rooms spread across three floors and two mezzanines. Key spaces includet the large Multipurpose Area, with 11,340 sqm divisible into eight separate areas, and the Banquet Hall, offering stunning sea views.

The Auditorium, designed by Swiss architects Herzog & de Meuron, is shaped like an equilateral triangle and is connected to the Convention Centre by a 116-metre underground walkway. It has a seating capacity of 3,084, and includes a 420 sqm stage, translation booths, and dressing rooms.
With a rough-textured blue façade, the Auditorium features spacious interiors and rooms designed as hybrid spaces—ideal for hosting all kinds of events and performances.

The CCIB is also known for its cutting-edge technological infrastructure and its wide range of high-quality services tailored to suit the needs of any type of event.

Since the beginning, the CCIB has demonstrated a strong commitment to environmental sustainability and continues to actively contribute to the improvement of its surreounding social environtment.
