The Putrajaya International Convention Centre (PICC; Malay: Pusat Konvensyen Antarabangsa Putrajaya) is a convention centre in Putrajaya, Malaysia. It occupies an area of 135,000 square meters in Precinct 5. The building began construction in 2001 and was completed in September 2003. It is designed by fourth prime minister Mahathir Mohamad to look like the eye of pending perak (a silver Malay royal belt buckle).^[1] It was renamed from the Putrajaya Convention Centre in October 2004 to its present name to reflect its international status on par with conference centres in world-class cities such as London, Tokyo and Paris.

Notable events held at the PICC include: the 10th Islamic Summit organised by the Organisation of Islamic Cooperation (OIC) in October 2003, the Malaysian International Fireworks Competition in 2007 and 2008, the Enthiran original motion picture soundtrack release in 2010, and the 20th Gano Excel Internacional - Convención Global in 2015.
