Events venue in Wan Chai, Hong Kong

The Hong Kong Convention and Exhibition Centre (HKCEC) is one of the two major convention and exhibition venues in Hong Kong, along with AsiaWorld–Expo. It is located in Wan Chai North, Hong Kong Island. Built along the Victoria Harbour, it is linked by covered walkways to nearby hotels and commercial.

The original building was built on reclaimed land off Gloucester Road in 1988. The glass curtain was the world's largest at the time, overlooking the Victoria Harbour on three sides. The second phase of the centre, located on an artificial island, was constructed from 1994 to 1997, and features a bird like rooftop (also referred to as a turtle by some critics). The project took only 48 months from reclamation to completion. The main constructor of the extension was a joint venture named Hip Hing Construction Co Ltd Dragages et Travaux Publics. Originally, Phase Two was connected to Phase One with an atrium link (a sky bridge), and to Convention Road with two road bridges, but now the two phases are connected by an expanded exhibition hall. The complex's construction was financed by New World Development, with the Renaissance Harbour View Hotel, Grand Hyatt Hong Kong and Harbour View Apartments on top of it. HKCEC made a second expansion during 2006–2009. Upon completion, the HK$1.4 billion expansion added 19,400 square metres to the HKCEC, bringing the total exhibition space to nearly 83,000 square metres and total rentable function space to over 92,000 square metres.

The Hong Kong Convention and Exhibition Centre (Management) Limited, a wholly owned subsidiary of NWS Holdings (新創建集團有限公司), is contracted by the HKTDC for the day to day management and operation of the HKCEC. The 850 member staff's responsibilities include administration, marketing, booking, scheduling, event co ordination, maintenance, security and food and beverage operations. The latter including banqueting, and managing the centre's restaurants. The managing director of the company is Monica Lee Müller.

Numerous functions are held at the HKCEC each year, including exhibitions, conventions/meetings, banquets, the Hong Kong Food Expo, Hong Kong Food Festival, the Hong Kong Book Fair and other special events. The centre hosts more than 45 international trade fairs for buyers from more than 100 countries each year, including the world's largest leather fair and watch and clock fair. The regular international fairs for giftware, toys, fashion, jewellery, electronics and optical products are Asia's largest. In addition, HKCEC hosts the annual film expo CineAsia where all major Hollywood studios present their upcoming productions to the Asian theatrical industry. It also served as the site of the 1997 Hong Kong handover ceremony, which signified the end of British colonial rule. The Sixth WTO Ministerial Conference took place at the HKCEC from 13–18 December 2005. The NGO Centre was located at "Phase I" of the centre. This is the first time a WTO Ministerial Conference and the NGO Centre was located under the same roof as the Conference proceedings. (See also: the NGO section of the Host Government's website )

Since 2013, a huge countdown clock was installed at facade of HKCEC to celebrate the New Year's Eve with fireworks and light show and was held ever since. In May 2023, the HKCEC cancelled an event planned by pro democracy singer Anthony Wong, after initially approving it.

Located on the north shore of Hong Kong Island, the HKCEC is easily accessible via the Star Ferry service, whose Wan Chai Pier is situated just east of the main building and operates from the HKCEC across Victoria Harbour to Tsim Sha Tsui Pier, adjacent to the Cultural Centre. Exhibition Centre station on the cross harbour section of the East Rail line and the proposed North Island line is directly located under the HKCEC. Wan Chai station on the Island line of the MTR is within walking distance and is linked to the HKCEC via a pedestrian bridge over O'Brien Road. In addition, the HKCEC is served by numerous franchised bus routes operated by Citybus, including several cross harbour routes operated jointly with Kowloon Motor Bus.

During the Chinese campaign of the 2003 video game Command & Conquer: Generals, the player is ordered to destroy the HKCEC with military force after it falls under the control of a fictional terrorist group, the Global Liberation Army. The game series was banned in China. It is also the setting for the grand finale in both New Police Story starring Jackie Chan, and Gen X Cops. The structure played a major part in the film Transformers: Age of Extinction, where a Decepticon ship is seen destroying the structure from above.
