Bournemouth International Centre, Convention center and event venue in Bournemouth, England
The Bournemouth International Centre is a multipurpose complex by the sea that features four main halls with capacity for several thousand visitors. The spaces are used for conferences, exhibitions, concerts, and theatrical performances, with seating arrangements adapted according to each occasion.
The complex was built in the early 1980s to give the town a venue for larger gatherings. The architecture from that period reflects the functional building style of the decade.
The building carries the name of its coastal town and serves as a stage for touring acts from home and abroad, ranging from pop to comedy to classical concerts. Locals also use the halls for trade fairs and community gatherings, giving the place a broad social role.
The building sits near the seafront promenade and can be reached on foot from the town center. Parking is available, and most entrances are at ground level, making access straightforward.
During winter months, an ice rink appears on the ground floor, drawing families and school groups. The space is cleared again after the season for other gatherings.
