La Panthera BKC · Banquet & private events

You bring the guests. We run everything else.

A restaurant in G Block, BKC built for conferences, town halls, offsites and launches — and for the larger private celebrations too. Our team takes the room, the food, the bar, the vendors and the floor, so nothing is left sitting on your list.

Capacity

One room, three ways to fill it.

The furniture comes out, goes back, or moves wherever the evening needs it. Which is why the same room works for a seated dinner and a 250-person reception.

Seated
100

Guests at table, served — long tables, rounds or clusters.

Standing
250

Floating reception with pass-arounds and the bar open.

Across a day
500+

Served in rotation — sessions, seatings or arrivals in waves.

What you don't have to arrange

The list you were dreading is mostly ours.

Most of what makes an event stressful is the arranging — permits, sound, vendors, menus, someone to run the floor on the night. Here it is already accounted for.

A permanent liquor licence

Serving alcohol at most venues means applying for a one-day licence — a fee, paperwork and days of waiting. Not here. Nothing to apply for, nothing extra to pay.

Your own vendors, no restrictions

Decor, florists, photographers, entertainment — bring whoever you already work with. No approved-list, no surcharge.

And ours if you'd rather

No vendors of your own? We'll share our list — people we have worked with and can vouch for.

The whole venue, even for a small group

Exclusive use isn't reserved for big numbers. A smaller party can have the room to itself once the minimum spend is met.

Sound and a DJ console, installed

Use our in-house DJ, charged separately, or bring your own and plug in. Want more than the house system? Bring additional sound, no objection.

Live acts and full production

We have hosted weddings with live artists and complete custom builds. If your evening needs staging and production, the room takes it.

Menus built from scratch

Nothing off a banqueting sheet. The menu is designed for your event with our kitchen, around what you and your guests actually eat.

A bar on your terms

Optional entirely. Take a package or pay by consumption, whichever suits the evening.

9 am to 1 am

Breakfast sessions through to late nights. Tell us the hours and we will work to them.

Valet parking

Provided for your guests, in the middle of BKC, where parking is otherwise the first complaint of the night.

Before you commit

Taste it before you book it.

You come in and eat the menu first. Dishes are cooked as they would be on the night, you decide what stays and what goes, and the menu is built around your choices rather than handed to you.

You also meet the people who will be running your event — the same service team that will be on the floor. By the time your date arrives, nobody in the room is a stranger and nothing on the table is a surprise.

Questions

Asked most often.

La Panthera in BKC seats 100 guests for a served dinner, holds 250 for a standing reception, and can look after 500 or more across a single day when guests arrive in rotation. The furniture is fully movable, so the layout is built around your format rather than the other way round.
No. La Panthera holds a permanent liquor licence, so hosting an event with alcohol here does not require you to apply for a one-day licence or pay a separate permit fee. At most venues that application is a cost, a stack of paperwork and several days of waiting, and it usually lands on whoever is organising the event.
Yes, and not only for large events. La Panthera can be blocked exclusively for smaller groups too, as long as the minimum spend for that date is met. Message us with your date and guest count and we will tell you where that sits.
Yes. Outside vendors are welcome at La Panthera with no restrictions and no approved-supplier list — bring the decorator, florist, photographer or performers you already work with. If you do not have vendors of your own, we will share our list of people we have worked with and can vouch for.
Yes. We have hosted weddings at La Panthera with live artists and complete custom production builds. If your event needs staging, performers or a built set, the room takes it and our team coordinates it with your vendors.
A full house sound system and a DJ console are installed at La Panthera. You can book our in-house DJ, charged separately, or bring your own DJ to plug into the house setup. If an evening needs more than the house system, you are free to bring in additional sound.
Events at La Panthera can start as early as 9 am and run until 1 am — breakfast sessions and daytime conferences through to late-night celebrations. Tell us the hours you need and we will work to them.
Yes. Before your event you come in for a tasting, eat the dishes as they will be cooked on the night, and choose what goes on your menu. You also meet the service team who will be running your event on the day.
Fully. Nothing is taken off a standard banqueting sheet. Menus are built with our kitchen, under Chef Manuel Olveira, around what you and your guests actually want to eat.
The bar is optional. You can take a package or pay by consumption, whichever suits the event.
Valet parking is provided for guests. La Panthera is on the ground floor of INS Tower in G Block, Bandra Kurla Complex, Mumbai.
Earlier is easier, particularly for weekend dates. We do take short-notice bookings for straightforward events. If your evening involves heavy production it needs more runway — message us with the date and we will tell you honestly whether it works.
