KCEV venue
About KCEV

Rwanda's flagship venue for world-class gatherings.

A purpose-built mixed-use complex in the heart of Kigali — designed to welcome Africa and the world for conferences, exhibitions and landmark events.

Our Story

Built for Kigali's role on the global stage.

The Kigali Conference & Exhibition Village — known to many Kigalians simply as Camp Kigali — was developed to match Rwanda's rising stature in international business tourism. As Kigali continues to attract the continent's most important summits, forums and expos, KCEV provides the infrastructure and hospitality to welcome them at scale.

From the annual African Tea Convention to trade fairs, cultural festivals and diplomatic gatherings, the village has become a familiar landmark for delegates from across the globe.

Minutes from Kigali International Airport and the city's top hotels, KCEV offers the kind of seamless experience that has made Rwanda one of Africa's top-ranked MICE destinations.
