Hall 12, which will still be used as an exhibition and wedding hall, can now also host a range of live events including sports events, concerts other entertainment events, in a fully air conditioned environment.
At the touch of a button the tiered seating system unfolds 23 rows of high specification seating finished with black fabric and ice-birch veneer. Additional acoustic panels, moveable partitions, matching tiered mobile units and flat floor VVIP, VIP and multi-use seats complete the 5,700 seater venue.
Commenting on the completion of Hall 12, His Excellency Ali Saeed Bin Harmal, Managing Director of Adnec said:
"The transformation of Hall 12 is a special date for Adnec and for Abu Dhabi. The capital now boasts the country's largest indoor events auditorium and we look forward to the exciting range of events which we will host in the future. This is a big milestone in the short history of Adnec as we have hugely expanded the scope of the live events we are capable of staging."
A ceremony held last week saw Mr Al Dhaheri officially handed control of the new seating system from Mr. Shigeyuki Fukasawa, Chairman and CEO of Kotobuki, the company which supplied the custom designed system.
Adnec is the Gulf's largest exhibition centre with 73,000sqm of live event space; it stages over 100 live events every year and welcomes over 1.8 million people annually.
