Bali International Convention Centre upgrades integrate technology with sustainable initiatives

The Bali International Convention Centre (BICC), managed by The Westin Resort Nusa Dua, Bali and one of Bali's most prestigious convention and event venues, has completed extensive renovations, further positioning it as a leading choice for MICE (Meetings, Incentives, Conferences, and Exhibitions) in Bali.

This latest refurbishment integrates features such as LED screens and sustainable initiatives like electric vehicle charging stations and plastic-free amenities

As BICC's largest venue, the newly refurbished Mangupura Hall has undergone significant upgrades, including modern wall panels, cutting-edge LED installations on both sides of the existing stage, and a sleek, upgraded stage design. In line with BICC's commitment to sustainability, the lighting system has been enhanced with eco-friendly LED solutions.

The BICC renovations extend beyond Mangupura Hall, with LED signage throughout the venue ensuring smooth navigation for attendees, while practical improvements like anti-slip flooring in the loading dock area provide a safer and more efficient environment for event organizers.

Nusantara Hall, BICC's second-largest venue, now boasts premium tiled flooring in its foyer, replacing the previous carpeting. A new carpet and lighting system have also been installed to elevate the hall's aesthetic and functionality. Meanwhile, Jakarta Hall has received similar upgrades, with new carpeting and LED lighting.

For over 33 years, BICC has been hosting major international events such as the World Wildlife Fund (WWF) conferences and the Asia-Africa Summit. This latest refurbishment honours that legacy while integrating features such as LED screens and sustainable initiatives like electric vehicle charging stations and plastic-free amenities, cementing BICC's position as Bali's leading convention hotel.

General Manager of The Westin Resort Nusa Dua, Bali and Bali International Convention Centre Sander Looijen notes "BICC continues to be a source of pride for the island, solidifying its position as the perfect MICE destination, catering to everything from intimate gatherings to large-scale international events. Our premium location within ITDC, close proximity to the beach, direct connection to The Westin, and convenient access to the airport via a beautiful toll road, makes BICC not only a functional space but also an inspiring one for our guests."

As part of its transformation, BICC has also launched a newly updated website www.baliconvention.com , providing clients with easy access to venue details, floor plans, and booking options. The refreshed digital platform ensures a seamless experience for event planners looking to explore and book BICC's world-class facilities.
