Description
The CEC is envisaged as a high-quality, multifunctional civic venue that is actively used, valued by local communities, and supportive of local employment. It is intended to make a sustained and positive contribution to the cultural, social, and economic life of Cork City and the wider southern region, enhancing the experience of residents and visitors alike. The development of a venue of this scale has been an objective of the Contracting Authority since the 1990s and reflects long-standing strategic planning policy at national and regional levels. The CEC will be marketed at regional, national, and international levels and should demonstrate a standard of quality comparable with leading event and convention facilities elsewhere. The design and specification should be capable of attracting high-profile events, conferences, and performers, ensuring the centre’s competitiveness within the wider market. Flexibility will be a core design principle, with facilities required to be robust, durable, and suitable for intensive public use. Whole-life performance and operational efficiency will be central considerations, including energy use, maintenance, cleaning, and servicing.
