Blue Zone
This page provides information about the Blue Zone of the COP30
The Blue Zone is the primary venue for official negotiations, the Leaders’ Summit, and national pavilions. Organized by the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change (UNFCCC), access is restricted to official delegations, heads of state, accredited observers, and media. Located in Belém’s parque da cidade, this is where the future direction of international climate policy is shaped.
At COP30 in Belém, the Blue Zone will offer a space for countries, accredited organizations, and non-governmental organizations (NGOs) to engage in dialogue and present their projects, strategies, and solutions for the climate agenda. This is the venue where global diplomatic interest will converge on delivering concrete environmental responses. The area will include plenary halls, multilateral meetings, side events, delegation offices, meeting rooms, and facilities for accredited press. It will also host pavilions for organizations and countries wishing to showcase their ideas for a more sustainable future.
Brazil will have an official pavilion in the Blue Zone, which will be organized by the federal government.
