The Croquet Lawn at The Leela Palace Udaipur is an open-air event space set within the manicured grounds of one of Rajasthan's most celebrated lakeside palaces. Framed by lush greenery and the shimmering waters of Lake Pichola, the lawn carries the unmistakable grandeur of Udaipur's royal heritage — a setting where traditional Mewari architecture and natural beauty converge. The space is defined by its sweeping outdoor character: open skies overhead, the Aravalli hills as a distant backdrop, and the gentle atmosphere of a heritage property that has long been synonymous with refined hospitality. Whether lit softly for an intimate gathering or dressed elaborately for a grand celebration, the lawn transforms gracefully to suit the occasion.
The Croquet Lawn is well suited to a wide range of celebrations and curated gatherings. Wedding ceremonies and receptions are among the most popular uses of the space — the lakeside palace backdrop lends an inherently ceremonial quality that is difficult to replicate indoors. Pre-wedding functions such as mehendi and sangeet evenings translate beautifully to the open-air format, where the evening light over Lake Pichola becomes part of the décor itself. The space is equally sought after for cocktail evenings, private dinners under the stars, and social celebrations where guests can move freely across the lawn. Corporate clients also find it appealing for outdoor product launches, cultural evenings, and incentive dinners that benefit from the hotel's prestigious address. The events team at The Leela Palace Udaipur is experienced in designing bespoke setups across all of these formats, working closely with hosts to plan seating, staging, and décor that complement the natural environment rather than compete with it.
The Leela Palace Udaipur occupies a private peninsula on Lake Pichola, placing the Croquet Lawn in one of the most visually distinctive event settings in the country. The city of Udaipur — often called the City of Lakes — surrounds the property with landmarks including the City Palace complex and Jag Mandir Island Palace, both visible from the water. The hotel's location on the lake means guests arriving by boat have a particularly memorable approach, and the property offers its own boat jetty for transfers across the lake. Udaipur's Maharana Pratap Airport connects the city to major Indian metros, making destination-event logistics straightforward for guests travelling from across India. For planners weighing an outdoor venue in Rajasthan, the Croquet Lawn stands apart not only for the quality of the property around it but for a setting that requires little artificial embellishment — the palace, the lake, and the landscape do the work.
