The Nita Mukesh Ambani Cultural Centre (NMACC), a first-of-its-kind venue for the arts, will open its doors in Mumbai's Bandra Kurla Complex, reveals Isha Ambani. It promises to be a significant cultural monument, dedicated to her mother Nita M. Ambani, philanthropist, and longtime supporter of the arts.

The Jio World Centre, located in the centre of India's financial and entertainment hub, is where the NMACC is located in addition to housing the nation's largest conference centre, retail, and hospitality establishments, and more. The three-story structure will include facilities for both visual and performing arts. The Grand Theatre, The Studio Theatre, and The Cube are three specifically designed performance venues. They were all built with cutting-edge technology to accommodate a variety of experiences, from private screenings and thought-provoking discussions to multilingual programming and international productions. The centre will also open The Art House, a four-story facility that will feature prominent artists from India and around the world.

The Nita Mukesh Ambani Cultural Centre, according to Isha, is the culmination of her mother's love for India and her passion for the arts. It is much more than just a building. She has always wanted to build a community-friendly platform for viewers, performers, artists, and other creatives. Her goal for the NMACC is to exhibit the world the best that India has to offer and to draw the world to India.

On March 31, 2023, the doors to the NMACC will open with a spectacular three-day launch.
