• The awarded company, Elecnor Servicios y Proyectos S.A.U., has signed the contract for an amount of 768,192 euros and an execution period of four and a half months once the works begin.

The refurbishment of the Tamadaba and Roque Bentayga halls at the Infecar Gran Canaria Conference Centre is one step closer. This Wednesday, 6 April, the tender for the execution of the refurbishment work was awarded to the company Elecnor Servicios y Proyectos S.A.U., with a budget of 768,192 euros and an estimated execution period of four and a half months once the work begins.

The aim of the refurbishment of the Tamadaba and Roque Bentayga halls of the Gran Canaria Conference Centre is to improve the accessibility, visibility and functional requirements of the halls, which date from before 1990, with facilities that are not adapted to the current needs of the market.

Thus, the increase in demand for services and spaces in the field of trade fairs, congresses, business meetings and exhibitions in recent years has made it essential to extend and remodel the venue, thus increasing its capacity for growth and competitiveness in the trade fair and congress sector.

This project will equip the halls with new audiovisual, electrical, soundproofing, lighting, sound and air-conditioning installations. All this under an interior design project that also aims to comply with the construction and execution compatibility criteria of the Breeam sustainability certification.

Change of image

With regard to the interior design and design of these rooms, they have been planned as a multifunctional space adapted to any type of assembly or use where different spaces are clearly distinguished: entrance, spectators’ area and speakers’ area.

The entrance corresponds to the characteristic colour that gives its name to each of the halls, with the Roque Bentayga entrance being reddish orange, as a simile of the sun’s projection on this Gran Canarian enclave; while green will be the predominant colour in the Tamadaba hall, as a consequence of the vegetation of the Natural Park.

The space between the two halls, where the public is located, is conceived as the green lung that gives life to the venue.
In this way, the renovation of the Tamadaba and Roque Bentayga halls, to which the Felo Monzón hall will be added in the future, will continue with the change of image and adaptation to the new reality of the Infecar Conference Centre.
