Palais des congrès de Lomé, Convention center in Lomé, Togo.
Palais des Congrès de Lomé is a convention center in the administrative district of the capital featuring modern architecture with multiple conference halls. The facility includes exhibition spaces and flexible meeting areas designed to accommodate events of various sizes.
Built in 1981 through Togolese-Chinese cooperation under President Gnassingbé Eyadema, this center represented a turning point in national development. The project reflected significant investment in modernizing the country's capacity for international gatherings.
The venue hosts national conferences, international summits, and exhibitions that bring together West African communities. Visitors encounter cultural performances and discussions that regularly shape the public life of the city.
The facility is easily accessible from downtown and well-connected by public transportation. Visitors should plan for varying event durations and arrive early for better orientation within the different conference areas.
A major renovation in 2019 transformed this facility into a modern venue while maintaining its designation as a national monument. This blend of contemporary infrastructure and heritage status remains uncommon among conference centers in the region.
