About Lawn 1
An Open-Air Lawn in the Heart of Kumbhalgarh
Lawn 1 at Via Lakhela Resort & Spa offers an expansive open-air setting that draws directly from the dramatic natural landscape of Kumbhalgarh, Rajasthan. Surrounded by the Aravalli hills and set against the backdrop of one of Rajasthan's most storied heritage destinations — home to the legendary Kumbhalgarh Fort and its 36-kilometre boundary wall — the lawn brings a sense of grandeur and wilderness that few indoor ballrooms can replicate. The open sky, fresh mountain air, and earthy tones of the surrounding terrain create an atmosphere that is simultaneously raw and refined, making every event feel genuinely distinctive.
The space lends itself to events where the setting itself becomes part of the experience. Whether the lighting is the warm afternoon sun or a canopy of stars, the lawn's natural character shifts with the hour, giving each occasion its own mood. The resort's overall aesthetic — unhurried, rooted in the Rajasthani landscape, and attentive to detail — carries through to how Lawn 1 is presented and maintained.
Events & Celebrations
Lawn 1 is well suited to a wide range of celebrations and gatherings. Destination weddings are a natural fit: couples seeking a Rajasthani setting with genuine wilderness around them — rather than a city hotel garden — find the Kumbhalgarh hillside setting compelling. The lawn accommodates multi-function wedding programmes, from the mehendi and sangeet to the pheras and reception, with the open-air format allowing for versatile décor transformations between events.
Beyond weddings, the lawn works for social celebrations, milestone events, and intimate corporate retreats where an outdoor format adds energy and informality. The resort's position within the Kumbhalgarh wildlife sanctuary zone means the surrounding environment contributes an unmatched natural ambience that is hard to engineer artificially. For event planners looking to move away from predictable urban venues, Lawn 1 provides the kind of setting that guests remember and talk about long after the event ends.
The Via Lakhela team coordinates event logistics on-site, covering setup, décor coordination, catering service, and the practical details that make outdoor events run smoothly. Prospective hosts are encouraged to speak directly with the events team about capacities, preferred vendor arrangements, and package structures, as configurations can vary depending on the event type and guest count.
Location & Accessibility
Via Lakhela Resort & Spa is located in Kumbhalgarh, a town in the Rajsamand district of Rajasthan, approximately 85 kilometres north of Udaipur. Udaipur's Maharana Pratap Airport is the nearest commercial airport, making it the primary arrival point for guests travelling from outside Rajasthan. The drive through the Aravalli foothills to the resort is itself scenic, setting the tone for an event long before guests arrive on the lawn.
Kumbhalgarh Fort, a UNESCO World Heritage Site, is in the immediate vicinity, providing a powerful cultural and historical context for events held at the resort. For destination wedding guests or corporate delegates travelling from Delhi, Jaipur, or Mumbai, the combination of accessibility via Udaipur and the grandeur of the Kumbhalgarh setting makes Lawn 1 a genuinely compelling choice.

As an open-air lawn, Lawn 1 is subject to weather conditions, and it is advisable to discuss contingency options with the Via Lakhela team well in advance of the event date.

The Via Lakhela team is experienced in organising events within this environment and can guide hosts on what is permitted. Discussing these considerations early in the planning process ensures a smooth experience.
While destination weddings are a natural fit for Lawn 1, the space also works well for corporate retreats, team gatherings, and milestone celebrations where an outdoor, nature-immersive setting adds value. The Kumbhalgarh hillside location and the resort's unhurried atmosphere make it a compelling choice for companies looking to move their events beyond conventional conference rooms. The events team can tailor the setup and programme to corporate requirements.
