The Space

Trikuta 1 is a dedicated indoor event venue at Katra Marriott Resort & Spa, situated in Kakryal, Katra — the base camp town for pilgrims and visitors heading to the Vaishno Devi shrine in the Trikuta Hills. The space takes its name from those very hills, grounding it in the spiritual and cultural identity of the region. With a setting that balances the grandeur expected of a Marriott property with the serene, mountain-adjacent atmosphere of Katra, Trikuta 1 offers an event environment that feels both polished and purposeful. The interiors are designed to support a range of configurations, with flexible floor space that can be arranged to suit formal banquets, conference-style setups, or social gatherings. Natural light, contemporary finishes, and professional-grade infrastructure come together to create a space that works equally well for intimate milestones and sizeable gatherings.

Events & Occasions

Trikuta 1 is well suited to a broad spectrum of events — corporate conferences, board meetings, wedding receptions, religious celebrations, social get-togethers, and pre- or post-pilgrimage family functions. The venue's location in Katra makes it a natural choice for families gathering around a Vaishno Devi yatra, who want a high-quality setting to mark the occasion. For corporate groups, the space functions as a professional meeting and conference facility supported by the full-service infrastructure of a Marriott resort, including in-house catering and dedicated event coordination. Wedding planners will find Trikuta 1 equally capable: the room can be dressed for receptions or rituals, and the broader resort campus offers additional spaces and guest accommodation to anchor multi-day wedding functions. The Marriott's events team handles setup, audiovisual requirements, and catering coordination, reducing the organisational burden on hosts.

Location & Accessibility

Katra Marriott Resort & Spa sits in Kakryal, on the outskirts of Katra town, which serves as the primary gateway to the Vaishno Devi shrine — one of the most visited pilgrimage sites in India. The resort's position means guests arriving by road from Jammu, approximately 50 kilometres away, can reach the property without passing through the more congested parts of Katra town. The nearest major railway station is Katra Railway Station, which is well connected to Delhi and other northern Indian cities via the Udhampur–Srinagar–Baramulla Rail Link and several direct trains. For those flying in, Jammu Airport (Satwari Airport) is the closest commercial airport, and the resort is reachable from there by road. This combination of rail and road connectivity, set against a backdrop of the Trikuta mountain range, gives Trikuta 1 an unusually distinctive address — professional in its facilities, but memorable in its surroundings.
