The Exhibition and Convention Centre () in Ljubljana is a venue for organising domestic and international fairs as well as other events. The building complex stands in the Beà ¾igrad District, between Vienna Street (, Vilhar Street (), and Robba Street (), north of the Ljubljana railway station. It is operated by the Ljubljana Exhibition and Convention Centre company. The basic mission of the company is the organization of various events where the exhibitors and visitors meet and cooperate creatively.
The center was designed by architects Ilija ArnautoviÃÂ, Milan MiheliÃÂ, Branko SimÃÂiÃÂ, and Marko à  lajmer in the 1950s and the 1960s,. In 1954 the Communist Party of Yugoslavia decided that its 1955 7th Congress would take place in the new exhibition centre, and the construction was sped up accordingly. To make room for the new exhibition center, many of the old structures were destroyed. It was built on top of the former Saint Christopher's Cemetery and two churches were removed for the construction: the old Saint Christopher's Church (a Baroque structure) and Saints Cyril and Methodius Church (designed by Joà ¾e PleÃÂnik).
In 2001 the halls Steklena Hall - C and JurÃÂek - E were renovated, the Kupola - A hall was renovated in 2002, and renovation was finally finished in 2005 with the last halls Marmorna Hall - B and Povodni moà ¾ - B2.
The centre is a general place for exhibitions and meetings. In 2017 the centre for instance hosts annual general meeting for Eurocities. In the past the centre was probably most known for its hosting of auto-motor show. The centre is also known for hosting music and culture events.
For reference in 2010 the centre for instance has host following fairs:
