About Vivanta Chennai, IT Expressway
Four kilometres from the Old Mahabalipuram Road tech corridor and fifteen minutes from Chennai's domestic airport, Vivanta Chennai, IT Expressway brings a premium upper-upscale address to Sholinganallur — one of the city's fastest-growing corporate and residential hubs. Part of the Taj Hotels' contemporary Vivanta brand, this property combines business-ready infrastructure with the group's signature service standards, making it a credible first call for organisations whose guests and delegates are already concentrated along the OMR stretch.
Event Spaces Designed for Corporate Scale Along OMR
The flagship Konark Ballroom anchors the event floor, accommodating up to 700 guests in a floating setup and divisible into smaller configurations for mid-sized conferences or gala dinners. A dedicated pre-function area runs along its entrance, giving delegates a structured zone for registration, networking, and catering breaks without spilling onto the hotel's main lobby. Smaller breakout rooms support parallel sessions, syndicate discussions, or executive boardrooms — a layout particularly suited to multi-track MICE programmes. Combined, the venues for events in Sholinganallur span a range of configurations from hollow-square boardrooms to theatre-style conference setups exceeding 500 seats.
Corporate Conferences and Social Celebrations on the IT Corridor
Vivanta Chennai, IT Expressway is most frequently deployed for two distinct event profiles. For corporate clients — product launches, annual conclaves, leadership off-sites, and training workshops — the property's in-house AV infrastructure, high-speed Wi-Fi, and a dedicated events coordination team reduce reliance on third-party vendors. For social gatherings, including receptions and milestone celebrations, the ballroom's ceiling height and neutral décor provide a flexible canvas for custom theming. Planners should note that the property sits within a primarily corporate precinct; road access during peak OMR traffic hours (08:00–10:00 and 18:30–20:30) can add transit time for outstation guests, and this is worth factoring into arrival scheduling for large evening events.
Accommodation and Guest Convenience for Multi-Day Events
With multiple room categories across the property, Vivanta Chennai, IT Expressway supports residential conferences and overnight stays for outstation delegates without the logistical friction of arranging off-site accommodation blocks. In-house dining across the property's food and beverage outlets handles working lunches, conference dinners, and informal client entertainment within a single address. The location places guests within reach of the OMR's tech parks, making check-in-to-boardroom transitions straightforward for corporate delegations. Parking capacity on site supports private vehicle arrivals, and the property's proximity to the IT Expressway ensures visibility and accessibility for guests navigating the southern corridor.
Planning Your Next Event at This Sholinganallur Property
Vivanta Chennai, IT Expressway is listed on Spalba with verified capacity data, floor layout references, and direct request-for-proposal functionality — allowing planners to compare configurations, check date availability, and submit an RFP without a preliminary site call. Whether the brief is a 500-delegate annual conference, a corporate awards evening, or a curated social reception, the Spalba listing consolidates the details needed to move from shortlist to decision. Reviewing confirmed venue specifications on the listing before a site visit is a practical first step for any planner evaluating this property against comparable OMR alternatives.

Chennai Afternoon Tea
If you’re fans of a proper British high tea, you’ll be surprised and delighted with the earthy and vibrant Chennai version. Our Chennai Afternoon Tea experience is inspired by the quaint tea kadai (teashops) lining the city’s famous Marina beach. Every afternoon, locals and visitors stroll along the promenade, indulging in horse rides and beach skating. But the real attractions are the addictive ‘tiffin snacks’ or finger foods, from a packet of sundal – cooked chickpeas tempered with mustard seeds, chillies, curry leaves and grated coconut – tossed up by a street vendor, crispy bajjis (chickpea batter fritters), vadai (lentil fritters) and char-grilled, buttered corn on the cob to fresh-off-the-boat, marinated and deep-fried prawns and lamb samosas. Bring along business associates, family and friends to revel in this local tradition in a refined environment. Talk shop and share city secrets, as our chefs whip up irresistible platters of the city’s favourite finger foods, all washed down by cardamom-flavoured frothy milky tea. Your afternoons will never be the same again.
