From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The International Convention Centre, formerly known as the Birendra International Convention Centre (BICC), was a major conference venue and parliamentary building in Nepal. Located in New Baneshwor, Kathmandu,[1] it housed the Federal Parliament of Nepal.[2] The complex blended Nepalese and modern architecture to create a luxuriously decorated solid structure with multifunctional modern facilities. Built under gratis by China, the BICC was formally inaugurated in 1993.[3][4] On 9 September 2025, the building was among multiple other government buildings and political offices burned down during the Gen Z protests.[5][6]
