Meanwhile this arena will be the first of its kind to be built at an airport in india.
Furthermore this arena is part of the Rs 13,000 crore
airport expansion project currently underway. Apparently the overhaul process
includes a new terminal, widening of access roads, metro
access, cargo bays as well as a new multi-modal transport hub. Moreover
a BIAL spokesperson told TNM that the world-class concert arena
According to reports, the new arena will not hamper traffic going towards and coming from the airport.

Earlier Bengaluru airport began operations in May 2008 and offers a wide air-route network, with over 37 passenger airlines and 12 cargo airlines connecting Bengaluru to the rest of the world.
