Gujarat flaunts new MICE centre

THE WESTERN state of Gujarat has opened the Mahatma Mandir Convention & Exhibition Center in Gandhinagar, which is said to be India’s second largest international convention centre after the Hyderabad International Convention Centre.

In operation now is the centre’s phase one, which comprises a 5,000-pax convention centre, three seminar halls with a capacity for 500 pax each, a fourth hall for 1,000 pax, three exhibition halls spanning 10,000m2, and a selection of meeting and conference rooms.

The second phase of the covention centre, due to open next December, will feature a museum, library, outdoor theatre and research centre on Mahatma Gandhi.

Although the Industrial Extension Bureau of the government of Gujarat is currently responsible for the administration of the venue, plans are underway to call for venue management tenders. Local and international venue management companies can tender.
