The city of Casablanca has officially resumed work on the long-awaited grand hall in the Aïn Sebaâ district. The project, which had been stalled, is now back on track as part of the city's efforts to boost cultural infrastructure.
According to local authorities, the new hall will have a capacity of several thousand seats and will host concerts, theatrical performances, and conferences. The facility aims to position Casablanca as a leading cultural hub in North Africa.
The resumption follows the signing of new contracts with construction firms and the allocation of additional funding. The project is expected to be completed within the next few years, though no exact date has been officially announced.
Residents and cultural stakeholders have welcomed the news, hoping the venue will attract international artists and events. The hall is part of a broader urban development plan for the Aïn Sebaâ area.
