An Open-Air Setting in the Sahyadris

The Lawns at Radisson Blu Resort & Spa Karjat is an expansive outdoor event space set against the dramatic backdrop of the Sahyadri mountain range. The venue brings together the natural grandeur of Karjat's landscape with the polished service standards of a five-star resort, creating an atmosphere that is at once celebratory and deeply connected to the surrounding wilderness. Open skies, lush greenery, and fresh mountain air define the character of the space — qualities that are difficult to replicate in a conventional banquet hall, and that guests tend to remember long after the occasion.

The setting is particularly well suited to events that benefit from scale and natural beauty: wedding ceremonies and receptions draw on the scenic hillside context, while large corporate gatherings and team-building retreats find the open environment both energising and logistically practical. The Lawns works equally well for social celebrations, milestone events, and product launches that require a dramatic, picture-worthy setting.

Events & Occasions

The Lawns is a versatile outdoor venue capable of hosting a wide range of events, from multi-day destination weddings to corporate offsites. Its open format makes it adaptable to different seating configurations — theatre-style presentations, banquet rounds for formal dining, or cocktail layouts for more relaxed networking functions. The resort's dedicated events and catering teams work alongside clients to tailor the setup to the event's specific requirements, coordinating décor, lighting, audio-visual equipment, and staging.

Destination weddings are among the most popular uses of the space. The combination of a mountain resort address, a sprawling lawn, and access to the full range of the resort's catering and hospitality services means that couples can plan everything — from the mehendi and sangeet to the ceremony and reception — within a single, self-contained property. Corporate groups planning annual conferences, leadership summits, or incentive retreats also benefit from the proximity of the resort's indoor meeting spaces, which can complement The Lawns for sessions that require controlled acoustics or air conditioning.

Location & Accessibility

Karjat sits in the Raigad district of Maharashtra, roughly 70 kilometres from Mumbai and approximately 40 kilometres from Pune, positioning it as one of the most accessible hill-resort destinations for large-scale events drawing guests from either city. The town is connected to Mumbai and Pune by the Central Railway line, making train travel a practical option for guests who prefer not to drive. For those arriving by road, Karjat is well connected via the Mumbai–Pune Expressway.

The Radisson Blu Resort & Spa Karjat is set on the banks of the Ulhas River, which adds a further scenic dimension to the property. Guests travelling for destination events can stay on-site, reducing the logistical complexity that often accompanies large outdoor events. The resort's location — away from urban noise yet within comfortable reach of two major cities — makes The Lawns a strong choice for planners seeking a setting that feels like a genuine escape without demanding an overnight journey from most of Maharashtra's event-going population.
