Nasser Hall

Nasser Hall (Arabic: صالة الناصر ṣālat an-nāṣir) is a large neoclassical government building located in downtown Nasser City in the borough of Markez Asimeh, three blocks southeast of Victory Square. Nasser Hall is named after Gamal Abdel Nasser, the first President of the Arab Union, who served from 1958 until his death in 1970.

Nasser Hall is the official meeting place of the Presidium of the Arab Congress, which meets regularly in a large office located on the third floor on the west side of the building. Nasser Hall also contains a large auditorium, which has been used to hold all joint sessions of the Arab Congress (the bicameral legislative assembly of the government of the Arab Union) since construction of Nasser Hall was completed in 1996. As joint sessions of the Arab Congress typically happen only once or twice a year, the auditorium is also used for a wide range of official government or government-sponsored events, including plays, musical performances, international summits, and more.
