About West End Court
The Space
West End Court is an open-air event venue set within the sprawling garden grounds of Taj West End, Bengaluru — one of the city's most storied heritage hotels. The court draws its character from its lush surroundings: mature tropical trees, manicured lawns, and the quiet grandeur of a property that has been a landmark in the High Grounds neighbourhood for well over a century. The outdoor setting gives events a natural elegance that few enclosed banquet halls can replicate, with the garden canopy providing shade and atmosphere in equal measure.
The space is designed for gatherings that benefit from open skies and greenery without sacrificing the polished service and infrastructure expected of a five-star property. Whether lit by daylight for an afternoon corporate session or dressed with ambient lighting for an evening celebration, West End Court shifts effortlessly between registers — formal or festive, intimate or grand.
Events & Occasions
West End Court is well suited to a wide range of occasions. Couples drawn to garden weddings and pre-wedding functions — sangeets, mehendis, and cocktail evenings — will find the outdoor setting both romantic and versatile. The verdant backdrop reduces the need for elaborate floral or structural décor, letting the garden do much of the visual work while event planners focus on the finer details.
Corporate clients use the court for product launches, team gatherings, networking evenings, and outdoor conference breakout sessions, where the openness of the space encourages a less formal, more collaborative energy than a traditional ballroom. Social milestones — milestone birthdays, anniversary dinners, and private garden parties — are also a natural fit for the court's atmosphere.
Being part of Taj West End means guests have access to the hotel's full events infrastructure: experienced in-house catering, professional events coordination, technical and audio-visual support, and a range of décor and setup options that can be tailored to each event. The culinary team's ability to curate menus — from traditional Indian spreads to contemporary international fare — adds a significant dimension to any event held here.
Location & Accessibility
Taj West End sits on Race Course Road in the High Grounds area of Bengaluru, placing it in a leafy, well-connected part of the city that has long been associated with Bengaluru's diplomatic and civic identity. The hotel is close to Cubbon Park, the Vidhana Soudha, and the central business district, making it convenient for guests arriving from across the city as well as delegates staying in or around downtown Bengaluru.
The hotel provides on-site parking, and its location on Race Course Road ensures reasonably direct access from major arterial roads. For outstation guests or visiting delegates, Taj West End's own accommodation means that event attendance and overnight stays can be combined seamlessly — a practical advantage for multi-day corporate programmes or wedding parties travelling from outside Bengaluru.
