Having commenced the operation since 1997, the Golden Jubilee Hall project stemmed from the initiative of Khon Kaen University to commemorate the 50th Anniversary of His Majesty the King's accession to the throne. As the first of its kind in the Northeast region, the hall was constructed to serve the rising demand for the international standard convention and exhibition hall in Khon Kaen and the region amidst of the economic growth in 1990's.
