On this day, 70 years ago, on
20 March 1954, the GR – Ljubljana Exhibition and Convention Centre was founded. It was created on the initiative of the Slovenian economy and the Chamber of Commerce as a professional organisation for holding fairs and exhibitions. Over the past seven decades, the GR has developed into the leading event centre in Slovenia, hosting a variety of events from fairs and exhibitions, congresses, corporate gatherings to concerts, proms and other events. With its state-of-the-art facilities, equipment for all types of events and a team committed to service excellence, it has become a popular location for organisers and participants alike.
7 seedlings for 70 years
At the GR – Ljubljana Exhibition and Convention Centre, the extent of green spaces is maintained and new areas are planted. To celebrate its jubilee, the GR will be dressed in green to make it even more attractive to visitors and to the city it is home to. More than 70 seedlings will be planted. The entire GR team has been involved in the planting, with the help of Dobrovita - a company for training and employment of people with disabilities. With this effort, the GR wants to contribute to the greening of the whole of Ljubljana.
