About Riwaz
The Space
Riwaz is the dedicated banquet and event hall at Radisson Blu Hotel Amritsar, designed to host celebrations and gatherings that call for an impressive setting in one of Punjab's most storied cities. The name itself — Riwaz, meaning "tradition" in Urdu and Punjabi — speaks to the spirit of the space: a venue that honours the cultural richness of Amritsar while delivering the polished hospitality standards of the Radisson Blu brand. The hall features a formal, well-appointed interior suited to large-scale events, with décor that blends contemporary elegance with subtle regional sensibility. Whether the occasion is a grand wedding reception or a high-profile corporate gathering, Riwaz offers a sense of occasion that is immediately felt upon arrival.
Events & Occasions
Riwaz is well suited to the full spectrum of life's milestone events. Weddings and wedding-related functions — from sangeet evenings to reception banquets — are among the most popular occasions hosted here, and the space is configured to accommodate the multi-session, multi-day nature of Punjabi wedding traditions. Corporate events including conferences, seminars, product launches, and gala dinners are equally at home in the hall, benefiting from the professional support infrastructure of a full-service hotel. The venue's setup flexibility means that seating arrangements can be adapted to suit different event formats, whether a theatre-style conference, a round-table boardroom meeting, or a lavish banquet layout. Guests also have access to the hotel's broader facilities — including catering services, accommodation for outstation attendees, and pre-function areas — making Riwaz a convenient single-venue solution for organisers.
Location & Accessibility
Radisson Blu Hotel Amritsar is situated in the Bal Schander area of Amritsar, placing Riwaz within easy reach of the city's key landmarks. Sri Harmandir Sahib — the Golden Temple — one of the most visited pilgrimage sites in the world, is located in central Amritsar and is accessible from the hotel. Sri Guru Ram Dass Jee International Airport serves the city, making the hotel a practical choice for events with guests travelling from other Indian cities or from abroad. Amritsar's position as a major cultural and commercial hub in Punjab means the city has well-developed road connectivity, and the hotel's location within the city ensures that guests arriving by road, rail, or air can reach the venue without difficulty. For event planners whose guest lists span multiple cities, the combination of strong air connectivity, on-site accommodation at the hotel, and proximity to Amritsar's landmarks makes Riwaz a compelling choice that goes well beyond the four walls of the event space itself.
