Post its R35m upgrade, the CSIR ICC has become Tshwane's most credible mid-scale convention venue. 12 venues covering 10-delegate boardrooms up to 380-seat auditoriums, 1000m2 exhibition hall with heavy-vehicle floor loading, and an outdoor dining deck for breakouts. B&W recommends CSIR ICC for scientific and tech conferences, Pretoria government-linked briefs, and any event that needs credible mid-scale capacity without the Sandton price tag. 96% recommend across 446 reviews.
