With its comfortable seating and well-designed setting, it serves as an important space for artistic expression, intellectual exchange and cultural gatherings.

Inaugurated on 30 January 2006, the auditorium forms part of the International Convention Center project, an important initiative undertaken to strengthen Assam's cultural and convention infrastructure. Named in honour of Mahapurush Sri Sri Madhavdeva (1489-1596), the revered saint, poet, playwright and foremost disciple of Mahapurush Srimanta Sankaradeva, the auditorium commemorates one of the most influential personalities in Assam's spiritual, literary and cultural history.
