Busan Exhibition and Convention Center

Busan Exhibition and Convention Center, Convention center in Haeundae-gu, South Korea

Busan Exhibition and Convention Center (BEXCO) in Centum City, Haeundae District, consists of a first exhibition hall of 26,508 m2 with no interior columns, divisible into three halls, and a second hall of 19,872 m2 completed in 2012, giving 46,380 m2 of indoor exhibition space. A convention hall, 53 meeting rooms and a 4,002-seat auditorium complete the complex.

The facility opened in 2001 and made history by hosting the 2002 FIFA World Cup Group Draw. It later served as the broadcast center for the Asian Games, establishing itself as a venue for major international events.

BEXCO's name abbreviates Busan EXhibition & COnvention Center. Its auditorium, completed in 2012, was designed after a soaring seagull, waves and a ship. The nearby Nurimaru APEC House, a modern reading of the traditional Korean jeongja pavilion, hosted the 2005 APEC summit. The venue also appears as PEXCO in the JTBC drama Sisyphus: The Myth.

BEXCO spans two exhibition halls on either side of APEC-ro, the road crossing the complex; a connecting structure links the first hall and the 2012 second hall, so allow time to move between them. The site lies in Centum City, Haeundae District, and the auditorium connects directly to the convention hall. The outdoor exhibition area covers 20,415 m².

The site was a military airfield before the convention center: the Japanese army opened Suyeong Airfield here in 1940, and it later served as Busan Airfield until flights moved to Gimhae in 1976. The land then became Centum City.
