The new Prague Congress Centre building, whose design was selected through an open architectural competition with international participation, will host congresses, conferences, social events, and, in particular, exhibitions accompanying the congress program. The project is located south of the existing building and will have an elongated shape. The main exhibition space can be adapted to the needs of individual exhibitors and features a flexible interior layout. Importantly, the winning design addresses not only the new building but also its surroundings—the new building will lay the foundation for a high-quality public space, and the proposed urban design should, in the final phase of implementation, also include the transformation of Prague’s north-south thoroughfare (Magistrála) from a traffic artery into an urban boulevard.

The Prague City Council approved the project for the new multifunctional hall of the Prague Congress Centre (KCP); construction began on June 16, 2026, and the project is scheduled for completion in 2028.

The KCP has secured more than 1 billion crowns for construction; this investment will unlock the largest development of the site in history. The architectural design was created by the OCA studio in collaboration with architect Vít Máslo’s CMC studio. The KCP has obtained a building permit for the project and has selected a contractor through a competitive bidding process.
