MPC planning
With a total floor area of 60,000 m2, the three-storey MPC for the Beijing
Games will be the largest ever in Olympic history. The main functional areas are
arranged from the lower ground floor, ground floor to the first floor.
General Access---Media Entrance
-- Three separate media entrances
-- A VIP entrance leading directly to the Press Conference Green Room
-- A MPC Staff entrance
-- Two hotel staff entrances
Two entrances on the northern and eastern sides of the building both lead
directly to the Main Help Desk and other functional help desks in the Main Lobby
and the third entrance is dedicated for the photographers to enter the photo
work area and Kodak Image Centre as well as the lower ground floor.
The VIP entrance on the south-east corner of the complex will lead directly
to the Green room of the Main Press Conference Hall.
Separate entrances are also arranged for the two media staff hotels in the
appropriated locations. The MPC and hotels will share two loading/unloading
accesses and facilities in the lower ground floor.
General features of MPC Layout
The Beijing MPC is aiming to build up a highly logical layout for the Olympic
press operations, which features easy flows and effective operations with 12
