PUTRAJAYA International Convention Centre (PICC) is one of the most exclusive destinations for meetings and conventions in Malaysia.
PICC is the main convention centre in Putrajaya and the largest in Malaysia. It hosts a wide range of events, functions and corporate meetings involving governmental officials. It is also frequently used to organise both formal and informal events.
PICC offers world-class facilities with plenty of venues, functionality, state-of-the-art facilities and international-level service and support teams. Through it all, it retains its distinctly Malaysian warmth and charm.
Located atop a hill and astride a shimmering lake, PICC delivers a dramatic 360° view of Putrajaya, Malaysia’s showcase city.
PICC was the first convention centre to be awarded the Energy Efficiency and Conservation Best Practices Award by Asean in 2007.
It won Best Congress and Convention Centre, Asia for business destinations in the Travel Awards 2012 and was also the winner for Best Brands in Services – Convention Centre by Asia Pacific Brand Foundation (APBF) at the BrandLaureate Awards 2013 – 2014.
