The Taichung International Convention and Exhibition Center (TICEC; Chinese: 臺中國際會展中心; pinyin: Táizhōng Gúojì Hùizhǎn Zhōngxīn) is a convention center in Shuinan Economic and Trade Park, Taichung, Taiwan. The convention center was completed in September 2024 and it is scheduled to open in October 2025.[1] Designed to bolster the region's economic and trade activities, TICEC is poised to become a central hub for international conferences, exhibitions, and events.[2]

The concept of TICEC was introduced to enhance Taichung's "front-shop, back-factory" industrial advantage, aiming to elevate the city's global profile and stimulate related sectors such as tourism, hospitality, and transportation. Construction of the eastern exhibition hall commenced in March 2019, with the facility's inauguration slated for 2025.[3]

Facilities

Spanning approximately 7.34 ha (18.1 acres), the eastern exhibition hall of TICEC offers a total floor area exceeding 130,000 m2 (1,400,000 sq ft). The facility is divided into two primary sections: the Exhibition Hall and the Conference Center.[4]

  • Exhibition Hall: This area encompasses five above-ground levels and two basement levels dedicated to parking. The first and fourth floors each accommodate up to 800 standard exhibition booths, with the fourth floor also adaptable for performance events. The remaining floors feature open spaces suitable for various exhibition configurations.[5]
  • Conference Center: Comprising four levels, the center includes a multifunctional conference hall on the first floor with movable seating for 2,400 attendees. The second to fourth floors house the International Conference Center, equipped with fixed seating for 2,200 participants.[6][7]
