Phoenix Arena in Hyderabad is back. Once the go-to venue for cultural events in the city’s western corridor, it shut during the pandemic and has now reopened after a major renovation. The upgraded venue features a covered 1,000-seat open-air stage, a new amphitheatre, an indoor auditorium, a podcast studio, library, co-working space, container café, and improved acoustics, lighting and sound systems. While the revamp was carried out in phases, the arena has resumed hosting events over the past few months and is gearing up for its official relaunch in August.“My dream is to create a permanent home where creativity flourishes and artists receive the infrastructure, recognition and opportunities they deserve,” says Suresh Chukkapalli, chairman of the Phoenix Group of Companies. “We want to bring together artists, performers, creators, NGOs and communities under one roof and build a vibrant cultural hub.”
