The Carlos Lopes Pavilion was designed to be the Pavilion of Portuguese Industries, in 1922 during the Rio de Janeiro International Exhibition, being built essentially with elements transported from Portugal to Brazil. After the exhibition it was dismantled and transferred to Portugal, being implemented in Lisbon since 1932 in Parque Eduardo VII. It was the site of the Great Exhibition of Portuguese Industry and used for decades to hold cultural, artistic, political and sporting events.

With extensive renovation in 2016, the Pavilhão Carlos Lopes has an exceptional location in the city centre and is a unique venue in Lisbon, with different rooms for all types of events: meetings, conferences, lunch and dinner, fairs and exhibitions, and presentation of products.
