Rome, Palazzo dei Congressi to be renovated: 8 million euro intervention


Rome's Palazzo dei Congressi will be renovated. The work will take about two years, for an eight-million-euro intervention that aims not only to renovate the building in its entirety to ensure its preservation first and foremost, but also to increase its functionality.

Eight million euros, of which 950,000 euros will come from PNRR funds, to renovate the Palazzo dei Congressi in Rome: the intervention will focus on the restoration and consolidation of the cladding of the building designed by architect Adalberto Libera, which together with the Nuvola represents an important conference and events hub for the capital. This was announced by the top management of Eur Spa (the agreement that provides for important interventions to enhance the historical, artistic, cultural and sports heritage of the EUR district will be signed in the coming weeks by Roma Capitale and Eur Spa). Architectural firm Alvisi Kirimoto will be in charge of the renovation.

“The project,” says Eur Spa, “now under consideration by the Special Superintendence of Rome Archaeology Fine Arts and Landscape, is the first renovation and re-functionalization intervention that invests the entire complex in its entirety since it was opened for the International Agricultural Fair in 1953 and aims not only to restructure the’building in its entirety to ensure, first and foremost, its preservation, but also to increase its functionality and consequently to improve its competitiveness in line with the offer of the main congress capitals, with which the Eur congress hub is competing in the world market for large events.”

The work will take about two years. “The project,” explains architect Mario Alvisi, “was drawn up strictly respecting the work and genius of Libera.”
