Information

The Adelaide Convention Centre is a large convention centre on North Terrace, Adelaide. It was the first purpose-built convention centre to be built in Australia.
The convention centre was constructed over part of the Adelaide railway station, together with the Hyatt Regency Hotel (now the InterContinental Hotel), Exhibition Hall and an office block in the 1980s as part of the Adelaide Station and Environs Redevelopment project. It has been rebuilt and extended upon a few times since its original construction in 1987.

In 1999 an extension was planned and in late 2001 it was unveiled. It was designed by Larry Oltmanns who was a design partner with SOM at the time. The project won the Royal Australian Institute of Architects 2002 Awards of Merit: BHP Colourbond Steel Award, Interior Architecture and New Building.
