The Vatika Lawn

The Vatika Lawn at Velvet Clarks Exotica is an open-air event space that brings together the natural charm of a lush green lawn with the polished hospitality infrastructure of a well-regarded hotel in Zirakpur, Punjab. The space is designed for grand gatherings, offering a sweeping outdoor setting that feels expansive and celebratory without sacrificing comfort or organisation. The open-sky format lends the lawn a sense of occasion that is difficult to replicate indoors — whether bathed in golden afternoon light for a pre-wedding function or dressed in fairy lights and floral mandaps for an evening ceremony, the Vatika Lawn transforms with every event it hosts.

The venue sits within the Velvet Clarks Exotica property, which benefits from the Clarks group's established reputation in Indian hospitality. Guests arriving at the lawn are immediately met with the well-maintained greenery and the operational support of a hotel that has the staff, kitchen facilities, and event management experience to handle large-scale functions. The aesthetic of the space is versatile — it accommodates both elaborate traditional décor and clean, contemporary styling with equal ease, making it a strong fit for families with different creative visions for their event.

Events & Occasions

The Vatika Lawn is particularly well suited to weddings and the full spectrum of wedding-related celebrations — mehendi ceremonies, sangeet evenings, engagement parties, and the main wedding reception. Its open-air character makes it a natural stage for pheras under the stars, while the surrounding hotel facilities mean that guests have access to indoor spaces, restrooms, and banquet support without having to leave the property.

Beyond weddings, the lawn is a practical choice for large social gatherings, milestone birthday celebrations, anniversary parties, and festive events. Corporate clients looking for an outdoor setting for team events, product launches with a difference, or evening networking gatherings will also find the space adaptable. The hotel's catering and AV infrastructure can be extended to the lawn, ensuring that outdoor events do not mean a compromise on production quality.

Location & Accessibility

Velvet Clarks Exotica is located in Zirakpur, a rapidly growing township that sits at the intersection of key highways connecting Chandigarh, Panchkula, and Mohali — the tri-city region of Punjab and Haryana. Zirakpur's position makes it highly accessible for guests travelling from across the region, whether by road from Chandigarh city or from further afield via the Chandigarh Airport, which is among the nearest major airports to the property.

The highway connectivity that defines Zirakpur means that most guests from the Chandigarh tri-city area can reach the property without navigating congested city-centre roads. For outstation guests, the surrounding hotel accommodation means that travel logistics are simplified — attendees can stay on-site and walk to the lawn venue, reducing coordination stress for hosts and their families. This combination of regional accessibility and on-site convenience makes the Vatika Lawn a compelling choice for events drawing guests from across Punjab, Haryana, and beyond.
