The ASEAN Convention Center, formerly the Fontana Convention Center, is a convention center at the Clark Freeport Zone in Pampanga, Philippines.[1]

The building was originally constructed in February 2016 and was meant as one of the venues of one of the ministerial meetings of the 2017 ASEAN Summit.[2]

It was renovated by Budji+Royal Architects for four months 2017 and was renamed as the ASEAN Convention Center and the venue hosted the 11th ASEAN Defense Ministers' Meeting.[3]

The convention center covers an area of 5,300 m2 (57,000 sq ft) and has a lobby, four banquet halls and has four Presidential rooms. Its facade was previously yellow in color prior to the 2017 renovations.[3]

The judo, jujitsu, and kurash competitions of the 2019 Southeast Asian Games are scheduled to be held at the convention center.[4] During the COVID-19 pandemic, the convention center was temporarily converted to a 150-bed quarantine facility.[5]
