"All of the staff at the GCCEC worked diligently to provide a first class, international evening. The theming, entertainment and audio visual were all top notch. The food was exquisite, and the service outstanding. The hospitality, the room and the overall operation facilities were coordinated efficiently and graciously, thanks to the efforts of so many professionals at the GCCEC."

"It is well designed for gala dinner setting up. Other convention centres have not own kitchen system in exhibition hall and have to set up kitchen area inside of hall, but GCCEC has own kitchen ( there are 3 kitchen facilities) outside of the hall. We can utilise whole space of the Exhibition hall."
