Vietnam has unveiled a striking multipurpose convention centre with a design inspired by the country’s ubiquitous coracle boat. Axi Plaza celebrated its grand opening last month at its spectacular beachfront location, overlooking Long Beach on Vietnam’s scenic Cam Ranh peninsula. Its host of remarkable facilities include a vast state-of-the-art conference hall, a 360-degree rooftop venue, a stunning outdoor beachfront event space, and about 10,000sqm dedicated to shopping and dining outlets.
The largest multipurpose convention centre in the region, Axi Plaza marks The Anam Group’s third major development, following the launch of luxurious resorts The Anam Cam Ranh and The Anam Mui Ne in 2017 and 2023 respectively. Adjacent to 12-hectare The Anam Cam Ranh with 213 rooms, suites and villas, Axi Plaza is breaking new ground in Cam Ranh, which was once renowned as southeast Asia’s greatest deepwater harbour and is now rising as an upscale alternative to nearby Nha Trang. Billed as affording “meetings above the beach”, the 1,197sqm conference hall and ballroom area on Axi Plaza’s third floor accommodates up to 1,000 people.
Dominated by a high ceiling with timber beams fashioned in a fan formation, the hall features a cutting edge 75sqm LED screen and panoramic vistas encompassing swimming pools, a manicured lawn and the ocean. Totalling 1,077sqm, the 360-degree rooftop area on the fifth floor has been designed for receptions and company events and offers sweeping vi.
