The Pool Side venue at Olde Bangalore Resort & Convention Center brings together the natural beauty of Tharabanahalli's open countryside with the polished infrastructure of a full-service resort. Set alongside the property's outdoor pool, this al fresco space offers a distinctive atmosphere that few urban banquet halls can replicate — natural light by day, open skies by night, and greenery that forms a living backdrop to every event. The setting is relaxed yet refined, making it a compelling choice for hosts who want their guests to feel genuinely away from the city without travelling far from Bengaluru.
The Pool Side space is well suited to a wide range of social and celebratory occasions. Pre-wedding functions such as mehendi ceremonies, cocktail evenings, and sangeet nights translate particularly well to this outdoor format, where the surrounding resort landscape adds natural ambience that indoor halls cannot easily replicate. Corporate sundowners, team gatherings, and informal networking events also find a natural home here, where the relaxed resort environment encourages guests to unwind. Birthday celebrations, anniversary parties, and family reunions are equally at home in this setting. For multi-day weddings and corporate retreats hosted across the broader resort and convention complex, the Pool Side venue offers a versatile complementary space — one that provides a change of scene and a more informal tone alongside the property's larger function areas.
Olde Bangalore Resort & Convention Center is located in Tharabanahalli, on the outskirts of Bengaluru, Karnataka. The resort's position on the city's periphery means guests arrive to noticeably greener, quieter surroundings than central Bengaluru provides, while still being connected to the metropolitan area. The broader property functions as a self-contained destination resort, with convention facilities, accommodation, and outdoor spaces operating together — meaning out-of-town guests and delegates can stay on-site without needing to arrange external lodging. For event planners, this self-contained quality is significant: it reduces the logistical complexity of coordinating a multi-day programme. The Pool Side venue benefits directly from this ecosystem — catering, hospitality, and event support draw from the resort's in-house teams, giving organisers a single point of contact for the full event experience. Whether it serves as the centrepiece of a standalone celebration or as one element within a larger resort-wide programme, the Pool Side space offers a setting that is both memorable and practically well-supported.
