Amaravati to Host Prestigious HUDCO International Convention Centre, Boosting Business and Cultural Landscape

Amaravati is set to witness a transformative milestone with the upcoming HUDCO International Convention Centre, a prestigious project designed to establish the city as a vibrant hub of economic, business, and cultural activities. Planned across 10 acres, the centre will be developed by the Housing and Urban Development Corporation (HUDCO) and is envisioned as a symbol of pride for the state of Andhra Pradesh.

The announcement was made by Union Minister of State for Rural Development and Communications, Pemmasani Chandrasekhar, in New Delhi. He confirmed that HUDCO has approved the acquisition of 10 acres of land, with the Andhra Pradesh Capital Region Development Authority (APCRDA) already granting clearance for 8 acres. Approval for the remaining 2 acres is also underway and expected soon.

The convention centre will be modeled on the lines of the iconic India Habitat Centre in New Delhi, offering a blend of world-class facilities and cultural spaces. Along with HUDCO’s regional offices, the centre will also function as a dedicated training hub for housing and urban development professionals.

The state-of-the-art infrastructure will feature a 2,000-seat auditorium, visual art galleries, hotels and guest houses, specialty indoor and outdoor restaurants, cultural art venues, exhibition halls, a swimming pool, and a secretariat and documentation centre. With these comprehensive amenities, Amaravati is poised to emerge as a prominent national and international destination for conferences, exhibitions, and cultural exchange.

Expressing his gratitude, Chandrasekhar acknowledged the support of Union Minister Manohar Lal Khattar, Andhra Pradesh Chief Minister N. Chandrababu Naidu, Deputy Chief Minister Pawan Kalyan, Minister Nara Lokesh, and the NDA government under Prime Minister Narendra Modi for making this landmark project a reality.
