Durban ICCvoted Africa’s leading meetings and conference venue
THE INKOSI Albert Luthuli International Convention Centre (Durban ICC) has again clinched the title of being voted Africa’s Leading Meetings and Conference Centre 2024 in the World Travel Awards. The Durban ICC also received this illustrious industry accolade last year when it was chosen as the continent’s Leading Meetings and Conference Centre 2023.
The iconic meetings, incentives, conferences and events (MICE) venue which was opened by former President Nelson Mandela in 1997 has been crowned Africa’s Leading Meetings and Conference Centre for at least 20 years in its 27-years of existence. Between 2010 to 2018, the Durban ICC was crowned Africa’s Leading Meetings and Conference Centre for nine consecutive years before being placed after Kenyatta International Convention Centre in Nairobi, Kenya, which took first prize. Now the Durban ICC is again on a winning streak, taking top position for the second year in a row, a testament to its unwavering commitment to excellence.
The World Travel Awards, known for its tradition of honouring travel excellence and industry leadership, has, for three decades, been recognising organisations that consistently elevate the standards of the global travel and tourism sector. The Durban ICC’s dedication to providing world-class services and facilities for meetings and conferences has made it a repeat recipient of this prestigious title. Durban ICC Chief Executive Officer, Lindiwe Rakharebe said: “We are immensely proud and humbled. This achievement reflects the dedication of our team and our unwavering commitment to providing a world-class platform for meetings and events.” She said the award is a testament to their exceptional team and the commitment of providing superior experiences to clients and their delegates.
