Gong, Concert hall in Lower Vítkovice, Czech Republic.

The Gong multifunctional auditorium occupies a converted gas container building with a capacity to accommodate 1,509 spectators across multiple levels.

The structure, initially constructed as a gas holder in 1924, underwent transformation under architect Josef Pleskot while preserving its industrial character.

The venue functions as a central location for international conferences, musical performances, and art exhibitions within the industrial heritage complex of Lower Vítkovice.

The ground floor contains an information center, gallery space, and dining facilities, while upper levels feature conference rooms and the main performance hall.

The structure contains 554,000 rivets and maintains its original gas holder bell, raised to 1,492 centimeters as part of the renovation.
