What's on in Islamabad
Islamabad hosts a steady flow of professional conferences, government-backed cultural events, university workshops, and occasional large concerts. The twin city of Rawalpindi shares many event venues, so check both when searching for events near the capital.
Major event spaces in Islamabad include the Pakistan National Council of the Arts (PNCA), Pak-China Friendship Centre, F-9 Park, Centaurus Hotel facilities, and newer co-working and gallery spaces in sectors F and G. Many high-profile tech and startup events also take place here throughout the year.
