The news about the Sava Center opening in November 2023 sensationally echoed throughout Europe. Sava Center, the largest congress, cultural, and business center in Southeast Europe, is restoring its former shine day by day. The investment in the reconstruction of this building will amount to over 100 million euros, and the investment company Delta Real Estate points out that the value of the Sava Center reaches far beyond the borders of our country. The new concept will bring business, entertainment, and life back to this facility, and at the same time, Sava Center will become a strong initiator of the congress industry in the region.

The reconstruction of the building, which covers 100,000 square meters, takes place in two parallel phases. First, facility A will open its doors and present a rich business and commercial zone, as well as a congress zone with significant improvements. The modern and interior-enhanced congress zone will offer more than 40 meeting rooms, the main congress hall with 1,100 seats, and a unique immersive hall with the latest audio and visual technology. The uniqueness of this space has been recognized by event organizers around the world. Already in the first months, the Sava Center will host national and international congresses that will gather thousands of people at the same time, and many companies have chosen to organize their conferences, presentations, seminars, and corporate celebrations right in the Sava Center.

The fact that Sava Center is becoming a first-class business center is also shown by the fact that a large number of global companies have decided to locate their offices in this building. The investors point out that more than 60% of office space has been leased and that the most interesting office spaces are the ones with private green terraces. In addition to the proximity to the city center and the most important roads, the key advantages of business premises in Sava Center are maximum flexibility, different square footage, impressive architecture, and a large selection of parking spaces.

Thanks to the commercial zone, company employees as well as fellow citizens will finally have a place where they can do everything under one roof. World-famous retail chains will open their stores on the lower ground floor of the building, while the main floor will feature luxury brands, the best from the world of fashion, and an exclusive restaurant. There is every possibility that the Sava Center will once again become the central place for events in Belgrade.
We can expect the first concerts, film premieres, and ballet performances only a few months later, in the first half of 2024, when the plan is to open Building B, where the Blue Hall is located. To our great joy, the capacity of this hall will be greater, and now it will be the largest auditorium in the region with 3,800 seats.

In addition to the preservation and modernization of the facility and in accordance with Delta’s business policy, great emphasis was placed on increasing the facility’s energy efficiency. The recognizable glass envelope will consist of three-layer glass with an exceptional solar factor, while solar panels will be implemented on the roof of the building, which, along with LED lighting, will lead to significant savings in electricity. The facility conceived in this way promises the highest rating of sustainability and energy efficiency, and as a confirmation, it will have the BREEAM certificate. As such, it will serve as an inspiration for many other congress centers.
