About The Lawn
The Space
The Lawn at Amara Resorts is an open-air event venue set against the dramatic backdrop of the Kullu-Manali valley in Prini, one of Manali's quieter, more scenic neighbourhoods. Surrounded by the resort's natural landscape and framed by the peaks of the Himachal ranges, the space offers a rare combination of mountain grandeur and intimate resort elegance. The open setting allows natural light and fresh mountain air to define the atmosphere throughout the day, shifting into a warm, celebratory mood under the evening sky. Whether dressed simply or elaborately decorated, the venue carries a sense of place that is difficult to replicate in a banquet hall — every event here is shaped by its extraordinary surroundings.
Events & Occasions
The Lawn is well suited to a wide range of events, making it a versatile choice for couples planning mountain weddings as well as organisers looking for a distinctive corporate or social setting. Outdoor weddings and wedding-adjacent celebrations — mehendi ceremonies, sangeet functions, engagement parties, and receptions — benefit especially from the natural scenery, which reduces the decorating burden and adds a ready-made sense of occasion. Corporate retreats, product launches, team gatherings, and brand activations also translate well to the space, where the resort environment encourages engagement and breaks from convention. The Lawn's open-air format lends itself to flexible seating and stage configurations, meaning it can be styled as a formal seated banquet, a standing cocktail reception, a lounge-style gathering, or a mix of all three.
Location & Accessibility
Amara Resorts is located in Prini, a village on the outskirts of Manali that sits close to the Beas River and away from the busier commercial centre of town. This placement gives events at The Lawn a peaceful, unhurried quality, while still keeping guests within comfortable reach of Manali's market area, local temples, and the broader Kullu-Manali corridor. Bhuntar Airport, the nearest commercial airport serving the region, connects Manali to major Indian cities. The venue is also reachable from Manali Bus Terminal. For guests travelling by road — the most common route for both domestic and international visitors to the valley — Prini's location makes arrival and departure straightforward. The resort itself provides on-site accommodation, so guests, wedding parties, and corporate delegates can stay on the property, reducing the logistical complexity that often comes with destination events in the hills. Planning an event here means your guests wake up to mountain views and never need to leave the property between the ceremony and the celebration.
