India’s biggest global music festival is officially back. Lollapalooza India will return for its fourth edition on January 24 and 25, 2026, less than a year after its last outing. The venue remains the iconic Mahalaxmi Racecourse in Mumbai, which has now become home to this much-awaited event.
Known for hosting some of the world’s top artists, Lollapalooza India 2026 promises four stages and over 20 hours of live music across two packed days.
Fans eager to attend won’t have to wait long. Pre-sale tickets go live at 11 AM on August 26, followed by general sales at 12 noon on August 28. BookMyShow Live, the Indian producer of the festival, is once again teaming up with global creators Perry Farrell and C3 Presents to bring the magic back.
Naman Pugalia, Chief Business Officer of Live Events, said, “As we enter the fourth edition, our ambition is to deepen the festival’s role as a catalyst for the live entertainment economy in India.”
Over the years, Lollapalooza India has brought an impressive mix of international and Indian talent. In 2023, fans saw Imagine Dragons and The Strokes share the stage with AP Dhillon and DIVINE. The next year, Sting, Jonas Brothers, and OneRepublic followed. The 2025 edition featured a historic India debut for Shawn Mendes and Green Day, along with acts like Louis Tomlinson, Hanumankind, Aurora, John Summit, and Brazilian DJ Alok.
