Durban — The Durban International Convention Centre (ICC) has been nominated at the World Travel Awards.
In a statement on Wednesday, the ICC announced its nomination for “Africa's Leading Meetings & Conference Centre 2024” at the World Travel Awards.
The nomination underscores the ICC’s continued commitment to excellence in the meetings and conference industry.

“We are deeply honoured to be nominated once again for Africa's top award at the World Travel Awards. This nomination is a testament to the support of our clients, the hard work and dedication of our team, as well as our firm commitment to providing world-class experiences for all our events,” Rakharebe said.
“To be recognised by the World Travel Awards is a tremendous achievement, and winning this title again would be a dream. It is worth noting that the Durban ICC has won this title no less than 18 times in this category's 23-year history, a remarkable testament to our ongoing commitment to excellence.”
