All about Delhi’s Revamped ITPO Complex

The Prime Minister’s vision of having world-class infrastructure for hosting meetings, conferences and exhibitions in the country led to the conceptualisation of the International Exhibition-cum-Convention Centre (IECC) at Pragati Maidan. According to the official statement, the project, which revamped the old and outdated facilities at Pragati Maidan, was developed as a National project at a cost of about Rs 2700 crore. With a campus area of approximately 123 acres, the IECC complex has been developed as India’s largest MICE (Meetings, Incentives, Conferences, and Exhibitions) destination. Regarding the covered space available for events, the IECC Complex finds its place among the world’s top exhibition and convention complexes.

The newly developed IECC complex at Pragati Maidan comprises multiple state-of-the-art facilities, including Convention Centre, Exhibition halls, amphitheatres etc.

Also, various paintings and Tribal art forms from different regions of the country adorn the Convention Centre.

Other facilities available in the Convention Centre include a 5G-enabled fully Wi-Fi-covered campus, 10G Intranet connectivity, an interpreter room equipped with cutting-edge technology to support 16 different languages, advanced AV systems with huge-sized video walls, building management system ensuring optimal functionality and energy efficiency, light management system with dimming and occupancy sensors, state-of-the-art DCN (Data Communication Network) system, integrated surveillance system and energy-efficient centralised air conditioning system.

Among other exceptional features, the IECC boasts a magnificent amphitheatre with a seating capacity of 3,000 individuals, which sets the stage for performances, cultural shows and entertainment events.
It also has a provision of over 5,500 vehicle parking spaces. The ease of access through signal-free roads ensures that visitors can reach the venue without any hassle.
