RITEP- TRADE FAIR & EXHIBITION PARK KIGALI-RWANDA
The Rwanda International Trade and Exhibition Park endeavours to position Kigali City as a premier exhibition centre. Its innovative design allows for versatile utilization beyond trade fair seasons, transforming the trade fair halls into integrated landscape features accessible to the public year-round. Inspired by Rwanda’s iconic hillside vistas, the design features three sets of halls arranged in ascending tiers, evoking the country’s distinctive topography(rolling hills). With elegantly curved roofs, these halls serve as an emblematic landmark within Kigali’s hills. This development caters to a spectrum of needs, offering expansive exhibition spaces, conference facilities, restaurants, and over 2000 parking spaces. Additionally, plans include a luxurious 5-star hotel and provisions for future expansion. Embracing sustainable practices, the design integrates passive cooling techniques and harnesses solar energy to minimize reliance on active cooling systems, aligning with environmentally conscious principles.
