Vote for Durban International Convention Centre 2026

VISIT WEBSITE

Durban International Convention Centre connects the operation of a events venue with environmental management and its role in the host city. Its sustainability programme describes waste separation, water-saving fixtures, refill facilities, daylight use and cooling arrangements designed around operational efficiency. These measures sit alongside management systems and the coordination required to host large gatherings. The centre also provides a platform for business activity, employment and spending associated with conferences and events. Nominated for Sustainable Organisation, Durban ICC highlights the influence a venue can have through its own practices and its relationships with organisers, suppliers and visitors.

Events involve many temporary activities, making consistent systems especially important. The centre’s approach brings attention to the resources used behind the scenes and the local connections supporting delivery, offering an example of how a convention business can consider both its environmental responsibilities and its contribution to the economic and social life of a destination.
