Festiva Recreations

Festiva Recreations sits on Madhure Temple Road at Rajanukunte, in the stretch of open land north of Yelahanka where Bengaluru thins out into fields. The drive from Yelahanka New Town takes about twenty-five minutes, and the airport road is close enough that flying guests reach the venue without crossing the city.

The property is laid out as a pavilion lawn with an indoor banquet hall and a separate dining hall alongside it, so the ceremony can sit outdoors while the meal runs under cover, useful between June and September. A smaller outdoor area is used for haldi and mehendi. Fifteen rooms on the premises mean the bride's and groom's families can stay on site rather than booking rooms in Yelahanka and shuttling back and forth.

Both in-house and outside catering are permitted, which keeps the menu open to families who want their own cook or a community caterer. Decoration is handled in-house. A DJ is available on site and outside DJs are permitted. Alcohol is not served and outside alcohol is not allowed.

The venue also takes smaller functions, haldi, mehendi and engagements under fifty guests — rather than only full weddings.
