Description
The impressive Sandton Convention Centre is in the northern suburb of Sandton, close to many excellent hotels that include full business facilities. The centre has been chosen as the venue for the World Summit on Sustainable Development. The nearby Sandton City and Sandton Square shopping malls are considered the best in Africa, and include banks, travel agencies, shops and restaurants. The suburb also hosts a range of interesting entertainment, has many great restaurants, and are the headquarters of many of the city's top businesses.

Although in the middle of a busy business area, parking is not a problem at the Convention Centre - two sizeable parking arcades are home to 10 600 bays. Getting there is also easy - Sandton can be approached from a number of different directions on major arterial roads and the route to the suburb is well signposted.

The Convention Centre itself is used for conventions, exhibitions and special events and it caters for the disabled. The convention level accommodates 3 500 people and the seating configurations are flexible. For large conferences, concerts and sports or special events over 4 000 people can be accommodated in a multipurpose pavilion.

There are two exhibition areas of over 5 500 square metres each, together with 15 meeting rooms.
