Dharubaaruge (also known as Dharubaaruge Convention Centre; Dhivehi: ދަރުބާރުގެ) is a convention centre located in Malé.

History

Dharubaaruge was initially constructed in 1990 by president Maumoon Abdul Gayoom to host the 5th SAARC Summit. It's been renovated two times, once in 2014, and the other in 2024. Dharubaaruge has three halls, Rannaban’deyri Maalan, Hakuraa Maalan, and Hiriya Maalan. Dharubaaruge had been used as a voting centre, a National Emergency Operation Centre during the COVID-19 pandemic, main headquarters during the 2023 Maldivian presidential election, and main headquarters for the Ministry of Housing, Land and Urban Development, Ministry of Construction and Infrastructure, and the Ministry of Climate Change, Environment and Energy in 2024.
