Hosting isn’t just meals for us - it’s the vibe, the memories, and a little bit of Bengaluru chaos. Every event here is a chance to celebrate something, big or small. ### Always Mixing It Up I never stick to one thing. Sometimes it’s a candle-lit dinner, sometimes it’s a banging party with a guest chef and live music. The goal? To make every Bangalore pop-up dining event feel fresh and unforgettable. ### What Goes Down at Our Events - Chef collaboration dinners, wild themed celebration parties, and private event culinary experiences are my bread and butter. - I love teaming up with chefs and brands for pop-ups. Could be a full-on Mexican fiesta or a secret Indian food night - you never know what’s coming next. - Private parties get the personal touch. Birthdays, anniversaries, whatever you want, I’ll help set it up so the vibe matches your mood. ### Details Make the Night - Menus always have a story. Maybe it’s a multi-sensory dinner with scented menus, maybe it’s something simple but full of nostalgia. - I’m picky about decor and ambiance. We flip the space to match your theme, whether it’s floral, festive, or just chill. - Music’s part of the deal. From SWITCH Fridays with live DJs to soulful bands, your night always has a soundtrack. ### Let’s Build Your Moment If you’ve got an idea for a celebration or want something nobody’s done before, I’m game. Every detail matters, and I’ll help make your event exactly how you imagined. ## Highlights Browse through Lupa's best work. ### [Featured](https://mytribe.in/thelupagram/special-event-hosting-culinary-pop-ups/featured) - [Video: Welcome to Lupa.

Three years back, MG Road was calling us with its old-school charm, so we built our own Tuscan villa right here. Not just for eating, but for hanging out, jamming, and making memories. Our Bengaluru family keeps growing, and we keep listening, tweaking, evolving. Chefs go wild making everything in-house, and our bar team? They’ll save your drink from ever getting sad. This villa is our heart, and you’re always welcome. ### My work - **Fine Dining & Bar**: We do European and Mediterranean food, a Prix Fixe lunch, Lupino Sunday Brunch, and loads of pop-ups and live music. - **Neighbourhood Tuscan Vibes**: Warm, noisy, full of Bengaluru energy. Not just a meal, it’s a real experience—sometimes a party, sometimes a cozy market. - **Obsessed Chefs**: Menu changes up, ingredients top-notch. House-made 'Nduja sausage, cured bacon, fresh pita—yeah, we’re fussy like that. - **Bar with a Twist**: Bengaluru’s first table-side Martini experience, quirky drinks, and seasonal specials like Tepache for Tequila Day. ## More services from Lupa - [Curated Bar & Beverage Program](https://mytribe.in/thelupagram/curated-bar-beverage-program) · ₹900-1,800 per drink (estimate) - [European Fine Dining](https://mytribe.in/thelupagram/european-fine-dining) · ₹1,500-9,000 per person (estimate) ## Experts similar to Lupa on mytribe - [Private & Corporate Cooking Events by Slurp Studio](https://mytribe.in/slurp.studio/private-corporate-cooking-events) · ₹1,800-3,500 per person (estimate) · Slurp Cooking Studio - [Private Dining & Events by Maffei Kitchen](https://mytribe.in/maffeikitchen/private-dining-events) · ₹1,800-3,200 per guest (estimate) · Maffei Kitchen - [Live Entertainment & Events by The Fat Chef](https://mytribe.in/thefatchef_blr/live-entertainment-events) · ₹850-1,800 per person (estimate) · The Fat Chef - [Live Entertainment & Special Events by Sherlock's Pub](https://mytribe.in/sherlockspubhennur/live-entertainment-special-events) · ₹500-1,600 per person (estimate) - [Pop-Up Restaurant Collaborations by Karnivore Kitchen by Kalyan](https://mytribe.in/karnivore.kitchen/pop-up-restaurant-collaborations) · ₹1,100-3,200 per person (estimate) · Bengaluru - [Pet Event Hosting by Therpup](https://mytribe.in/therpup_dogcafe/pet-event-hosting) · ₹3,000-5,000 per celebration (estimate) · Therpup Dog Cafe - [Hosted Events & Themed Nights by Sly Granny](https://mytribe.in/sly.granny/hosted-events-themed-nights) · ₹1,200-4,200 per person (estimate) · Sly Granny ## Book To book Lupa, message mytribe on WhatsApp: [Chat on WhatsApp](https://wa.me/916360004054?text=Hi%2C%20I'm%20looking%20for%20Special%20Event%20Hosting%20%26%20Culinary%20Pop-ups%20by%20Lupa.)
