Creation of an architectural complex: playground, large conference/showroom, meeting rooms, reception area, exhibition/showroom, reception areas, offices, and technical areas, the exterior layout including outdoor forecourt, parking and service areas, and a mall.

The main auditorium, an icon of the cultural and economic development of the Cap d’Agde entrance facility, features a hybrid morphology that respects both the codes of facilities dedicated to live performance and those of comfortable, functional convention halls.

The curved, rounded forms create a gentle atmosphere, while the smooth flow of traffic ensures that users have clear access to the various floors, thanks to the vertical alignment of the hall entrances.

The balcony is a major asset in terms of visibility. It allows the hanging the shape of the equipment without overwhelming the available volume. It is elegantly hanged to the side walls by its curved forms, and merges in the curves of the wall facings.

Using specialized technical equipment and calibrated acoustics, the required optimal visibility and perception of sound projections, whether acoustic or amplified, are ensured throughout the hall.
The Great Hall of the Congress Palace is an auditorium with a maximum capacity of 1,150 spectators.
