Chitrakoot sits on Doddaballapur Main Road in Yelahanka and is built around a thousand-seat lawn with a four-hundred-seat air-conditioned hall behind it. That ratio is the practical point: the hall is large enough to be a real second space and a real weather fallback for a substantial part of the guest list, which is more than most North Bangalore lawns can offer.
The lawn has a permanent pergola running along one edge, with pink columns and a strung-light ceiling above. In the gallery it appears dressed for both a daytime lounge and an evening ceremony with a mirrored aisle running through it, and it is what gives the venue its look. The rest of the property is planted, with bougainvillea and palms worked into corners and a paved approach through a floral gate.
The commercial terms have changed since this venue first entered our records and the direction of travel matters. Catering is now listed as outside-only, which puts your largest cost line entirely under your control, and the rental is published at ₹3,00,000 a function. Outside decorators and outside DJs are both permitted; alcohol is allowed if you bring it. Twenty-four rooms sit on site.

Designed, not just planned
Wedding planning & decor at Chitrakoot Wedding Venue: how we would design it
The pergola is the property's one piece of real architecture and the design should be organised around it rather than beside it. It already has a strung-light ceiling, which sets a warm colour temperature for anything underneath, so the palette has to be chosen knowing that: cool whites and icy blues will go muddy under it. Its columns are pink, which is a specific decision somebody else made and which a scheme has to either absorb or cover; wrapping them in floral is the usual answer and it works, but it has to be planned rather than improvised on the day. Along the lawn, the useful move is to treat the pergola as one long edge and build the ceremony perpendicular to it, so that the pergola reads as a colonnade at the side of the frame rather than as a competing structure behind the mandap. The mirrored aisle visible in the gallery is a good instinct on this site because the strung lights reflect in it and the lawn gets a second light source at ground level. Two constraints. The planting is decorative rather than structural, so there is nothing to hang from on the open lawn; height has to be built. And with a 1,000-seat lawn and a 400-seat hall, the wet-weather plan has to be decided at design stage, because covering the difference means a marquee that changes the whole scheme.
Which function goes where
| Haldi | Under the pergola in the morning. It has a roof structure and a defined edge, which an open lawn does not, and it keeps the main lawn clear for the day's build. |
|---|---|
| Mehendi | The air-conditioned hall for a seated four-hour function, or the pergola if the group is small enough to feel right in it. |
| Sangeet | The lawn, with your own DJ. Doddaballapur Main Road is a fast road with development on both sides, so establish the sound cut-off time in writing. |
| Wedding ceremony | The lawn for a morning muhurtham, with the 400-seated hall as the fallback. For a guest list under 400 the hall is a genuine alternative rather than a compromise. |
| Reception | The lawn in the evening, with the pergola's strung-light ceiling doing most of the work overhead. The gallery's strongest frames are all of this configuration after dark. |
Season and weather
November to February for the lawn. The pergola extends usable hours into March with a late-afternoon start. Between June and September, plan around the 400-seated hall or price a covered structure over the lawn from the outset; Doddaballapur Main Road's stretch of Yelahanka gets the full monsoon.
Arrivals, access and logistics
Doddaballapur Main Road at Yelahanka is about 23.8 km from Kempegowda International Airport, which is a genuinely short transfer for outstation guests by Bangalore standards, and an easy run from Yelahanka, Jakkur and Hebbal. It is a long evening drive from South and East Bangalore. Twenty-four rooms cover the wedding party; the wider block sits in the Yelahanka and airport-road hotels. Because catering, decor and sound are all external, agree the load-in sequence early.
An honest read
Is Chitrakoot Wedding Venue the right venue for your wedding?
| Right for you if | North Bangalore families running a 600 to 1,000 guest wedding who want a lawn with a built structure on it, their own caterer, and a substantial air-conditioned hall as the fallback. |
|---|---|
| Look elsewhere if | Anyone who wants the venue to handle catering, and anyone whose guest list is close to 1,000 and whose date falls in the monsoon — the hall covers 400 of them, not all. |
| Planner tip | Confirm the catering model directly, because it appears to have changed. Our older record for this venue describes in-house catering as available; the current WedMeGood listing records outside catering only. If it is now outside-only, that is good news for your budget, but it also means the venue has no kitchen obligation to you — ask what cooking, water, power and washing facilities your caterer gets, and get it in writing before you contract them. |

Asked and answered
Chitrakoot Wedding Venue wedding questions
What does a wedding at Chitrakoot cost?
The rental is listed at ₹3,00,000 per function, taxes extra, with rooms at ₹3,000 and in-house decor from ₹1,00,000, from the WedMeGood listing checked 11 September 2026. No plate rate is published because the current listing records outside catering only, so your food cost sits with the caterer you appoint.
How many guests can Chitrakoot hold?
The lawn is listed at 1,000 seated and 1,200 floating, and the air-conditioned hall at 400 seated and 500 floating, with a stated range of 400 to 1,200. Panigrahana's older record carries 100 to 1,500, which the current listing does not support. Ask for the seated figure for your layout in writing.
Can you bring your own caterer to Chitrakoot?
The current listing records outside catering only, which means you must. That is good for your budget, since the venue takes no margin on food, but it also means the venue has no kitchen obligation. Ask what cooking, water, power and washing facilities the caterer gets before you contract one.
Can you bring your own decorator to Chitrakoot?
Yes. Outside decorators are permitted, with in-house decor available from ₹1,00,000. The pergola along the lawn is the feature worth designing to — it already carries a strung-light ceiling and defines one full edge of the space, so an original build should work with it rather than compete.
What is the rain backup at Chitrakoot?
The air-conditioned hall at 400 seated, against a lawn listed at 1,000 seated. For a guest list up to 400 that is a complete answer; above that, a wet evening means a temporary covered structure. Ask who supplies it, what it costs, and how late the call can be made.
Does Chitrakoot have rooms?
Yes — 24 rooms, listed at ₹3,000 each. That covers the wedding party and immediate family for a two-day wedding. A larger block will need the Yelahanka and airport-road hotels, with transfers scheduled for the morning function.
How far is Chitrakoot from the airport?
The listing states about 23.8 km from Kempegowda International Airport, and Panigrahana's existing record carries the same figure. For a Bangalore venue that is a genuinely short airport transfer, which makes this side of the city easier for outstation guests than most alternatives.
Is alcohol allowed at Chitrakoot?
The listing records that in-house alcohol is not available and outside alcohol is permitted, so you arrange the liquor and the licence and the venue provides the setting. Confirm corkage or service charges, who holds the permit for your date, and the bar close time.
Can you bring your own DJ to Chitrakoot?
Yes. The listing records no in-house DJ and outside DJs as permitted. Get the sound cut-off time in writing before the sangeet running order is built — Doddaballapur Main Road has residential development along it, and an outdoor function carries further than an indoor one.
Which spaces does Chitrakoot have?
Two: an outdoor lawn listed at 1,000 seated and 1,200 floating, and an indoor air-conditioned hall at 400 seated and 500 floating. The lawn also has a permanent pergola running along one edge, which functions as a third, smaller setting for a haldi or a lounge.
How new is Chitrakoot?
The current listing records a start year of 2025 and carried a single review when we checked on 11 September 2026, although Panigrahana's older record for the venue carries a 4.5 rating from an earlier marketplace source. Ask the venue about its operating history directly, and for measured lawn dimensions and the available electrical load.
Where is Chitrakoot?
It is on Doddaballapur Main Road opposite Eurokids Preschool, in Yelahanka, North Bangalore. Easy from Yelahanka, Jakkur, Hebbal and the airport road; a long evening drive from South or East Bangalore. Send guests the pin location rather than the road name, which runs a long way.
What should you settle before signing at Chitrakoot?
Five things in writing: what one ₹3,00,000 function covers in hours and spaces; the catering model, since it appears to have changed; the kitchen infrastructure an outside caterer gets; the covered-structure plan and cost for a guest list above 400 in the monsoon; and the room block rate and release date.
