The Christchurch Convention Centre was New Zealand's only purpose-built Convention Centre. Christchurch's Mayor Vicki Buck opened it in November 1997. The Convention Centre was demolished in early 2012 following the 2011 Christchurch earthquake. ==Description== The Christchurch Convention Centre was located in Kilmore Street in the city centre. The design was an extruded concrete box with a glass façade facing the Christchurch Town Hall across Kilmore Street, over which a glazed airbridge linked these two and the Crowne Plaza Hotel, adjacent to the Town Hall.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url= http://www.vbase.co.nz/christchurch_convention_centre/venue_overview )〕 The Convention Centre had a capacity of 2,500 people. There were seven breakout rooms, and three halls that could be hired separately or together, to host major plenary sessions for 2,200 people theatre-style.〔 Two major artworks were featured in the building: "Blue" a neon sculpture by Bill Cuthbert, was on the façade, and the 84 m mural "Passport to the New Millennium", by Philip Trusttum was in the circulation space that ran the full length of the building.〔http://www.stuff.co.nz/the-press/news/christchurch-earthquake-2011/6266298/Call-to-save-artworks-from-centre Retrieved 9 August 2012〕 The Christchurch Convention Centre hosted many international conferences including APEC Small and Medium Enterprise Economics Conference, Shiseido Japan, New Zealand Law Society, Law ASIA, and the 11th Asian Retailers Conference and Exhibition, as well as many charity gala dinners. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「Christchurch Convention Centre」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
