The Kenyatta International Convention Centre (KICC) is set to enhance Nairobi’s urban appeal with the introduction of state-of-the-art dancing water fountains. The KES 100 million project will combine water, light, and music, utilizing artificial intelligence and robotics to create a synchronized visual spectacle.

Enhancing Tourism and Events

KICC Chief Executive Officer James Mwaura highlighted the transformative impact the fountains will have on the convention center’s role as a leading event destination.

“This attraction will not only captivate visitors but also serve as a unique focal point for international and local events, gala dinners, trade shows, and entertainment productions. It adds a dynamic visual and sensory element that sets Kenya apart from the competition,” Mwaura stated.

KICC’s Director of Business Development, Geoffrey Thande, emphasized that the fountains will elevate Kenya’s profile in the Meetings, Incentives, Conferences, and Exhibitions (MICE) sector.

“The installation of dancing fountains at KICC expands the facility’s offerings for MICE. Kenya is positioning itself as a premier MICE destination, and we believe this feature will complement the experience that delegates have at KICC,” Thande remarked.

A Sustainable and Eco-Friendly Initiative

In addition to providing an immersive experience, the project integrates sustainability measures. KICC’s Technical Services Manager, Robert Ochieng, noted that the fountains will rely on solar energy and a self-cleaning robotic system to recycle water, minimizing waste and supporting environmental conservation efforts.

A New Hub for Entertainment and Culture

Beyond business tourism, the fountains are expected to transform KICC into an entertainment hotspot. The convention center plans to host themed shows, family events, and cultural performances every weekend, creating a vibrant attraction for both residents and visitors.

To support this initiative, Mwaura announced plans to seek government approval to restrict road access to KICC on Saturdays, ensuring uninterrupted performances.

“The introduction of the fountains reflects our commitment to providing top-tier amenities for our guests and clients,” Mwaura emphasized.

With this development, KICC aims to solidify its position as a premier venue for business, entertainment, and cultural showcases in Nairobi’s central business district.
