由来
  • 英语“Singapore EXPO Convention and Exhibition Centre”的意译。
  • 新加坡博览中心一共有10个展览厅，建筑面积约100,000平方米。
  • 新加坡博览中心每年平均举办600个大型活动，会迎来约六百万名到访者。活动包括展览、会议、颁奖典礼、演唱会、宴会等。
  • 1990年代末，新加坡世界贸易中心（World Trade Centre）的展览空间被拆除，因此需要另设一个能容下面积超过34,000平方米的展览的室内场所来代替。
  • 1997年5月30日，新加坡博览中心动工建造。1999年，新加坡博览中心正式启用，以应对大型国际展览场地的不足。由于中心的地理位置偏僻，而且受到当时金融危机的影响，其使用率并不高。然而，自从2001年建设了博览（Expo）地铁站后，访客人数就大大地改善。
  • 2019冠状病毒肆虐期间，新加坡博览中心在2020年四月至2021年一月期间被用作社区隔离设施之一。
ETYMOLOGY
  • The Mandarin term “新加坡博览中心” is a paraphrase of the English name “Singapore EXPO Convention and Exhibition Centre” (commonly known as Singapore Expo).
  • Singapore Expo has 10 exhibition halls with a total floor area of around 100,000 square metres.
  • Every year, it hosts an average of 600 large-scale events, and welcomes approximately six million visitors. Events include exhibitions, conferences, awards ceremonies, concerts, and banquets.
  • In the late 1990s, due to the demolition of exhibition spaces in Singapore’s World Trade Centre, there was a need for an indoor venue with at least 34,000 square metres as a replacement. Singapore Expo was conceived to alleviate this shortage and host major international exhibitions.
  • Construction of Singapore Expo began on 30 May 1997, and the facility was officially opened in 1999. Due to its fairly remote location and the impact of the financial crisis at the time, it was initially not well utilised. However, after the opening of the Expo MRT station in 2001, visitor numbers improved significantly.
  • During the COVID-19 pandemic, Singapore Expo was used as one of the community isolation facilities from April 2020 to January 2021.
