Sheraton Fiji’s highly anticipated new convention centre opens next week.

The new Denarau Island Convention Centre will welcome the inaugural Fijian Tourism Expo (FTE) on May 5 – 8 with more than 260 properties and 150 international buyers attending the show.

Tourism Fiji CEO Rick Hamilton said, “The first event to be held at the new Denarau Island Convention Centre will showcase this fantastic new facility and demonstrate to international buyers that Fiji can host large-scale events.

“The facility is designed to accommodate up to 1,500 delegates and will be a great asset to both Denarau Island and Fiji in attracting large conferences and events to our destination.”
