Abstrak
Indonesia has become an attractive destination for both business and tourism. This fact is substantiated by data indicating an increase in the visits of international tourists for Meetings, Incentives, Conventions, and Exhibitions (MICE). This has given rise to the need for an enhancement of service offerings in the service sector that can stimulate local economic growth. Indonesian provinces, including Sulawesi Tenggara, are making efforts to mobilize and establish facilities to support these convention and exhibition activities. Kendari is a trading city that experiences annual growth, including in the tourism sector. Traditionally, meetings and events such as national workshops, seminars, and regional work meetings in Kendari have been hosted in venues like hotels and sports complexes, which often have limited capacities. Consequently, there is a growing demand for a dedicated convention and exhibition facility to overcome space limitations. In the planning process, this study employs qualitative research methods. Additionally, in terms of location and design, the Convention and Exhibition Center is proposed to be situated in the Mandonga District of Kendari. This structure will adopt a Green Architecture theme, offering solutions to address human and environmental health concerns while meeting the needs of the local community in Kendari.
