Palazzo dei Congressi, building in Riccione, Italy
Palazzo dei Congressi is a modern convention center in Riccione, constructed from steel and glass with large windows and bright spaces throughout. The building contains multiple flexible conference halls, six cinema rooms, underground parking, and a panoramic terrace overlooking the city.
The project began in 1999 and was completed with its opening in May 2008. The design was created by three architects and an architectural studio aiming to build a modern and versatile venue.
The city's name comes from the Greek word 'archeion', referring to a plant that once grew on local beaches. This place reflects Riccione's tradition of hospitality, where visitors naturally combine work with leisure and enjoy the surrounding shops, cafes, and seaside life.
The center is located near the train station and is easily reached on foot, just minutes from the beach and shops. Ample underground parking is available, and access from Rimini Airport is straightforward via bus number 9 or the Metromare service.
The building's facade changes color at night, creating a vibrant glow that stands out in the city landscape. At the top sits Riccione City Eye, a panoramic terrace at the highest point offering views across the entire coastline and city below.
