Lollapalooza India 2026, one of the world's largest music festivals, will return to Mumbai for its fourth instalment. More than forty musicians will take the stage over the course of two days on January 24th and 25th, 2026, at the world-renowned Mahalaxmi Race Course.

All about Lolla India 2026
Lolla India is coming back on January 24-25, 2026, with forty-plus acts spread out across four legendary stages, according to a statement from BookMyShow. From indie to hip-hop, pop, rock, and everything in between, the festival has it all. On January 24th and 25th, 2026, the Mahalaxmi Racecourse will play host to Lollapalooza India once again in Mumbai. Over the course of the two days, attendees will be treated to over twenty hours of live music over four stages. Organisers have said that the program would include both worldwide headliners and indie acts from India; however, they have not yet disclosed the whole roster. By the end of September or early October, the lineup of artists should be announced.
Lollapalooza 2026 lineup
It should be noted that the event is returning to its original January dates. This adjustment was necessitated since there were conflicts with the Coldplay tour, which visited India in January 2025. Among the many performers at this year's March event were Green Day, Shawn Mendes, Louis Tomlinson, Hanumankind, Raftaar, Kr$na, Talwiinder, Glass Animals, Big Boi, and many more. We may see many of these familiar faces return to the event, and we may even see some new DJs like Skrillex and Diplo. Many major projects were released this year by Indian hip-hop artists, who have seen exponential development in the previous few years.
This will be the fourth festival in India, and it will be held in Mumbai's Mahalaxmi Race Course. The enthusiastic response from fans and their high hopes for the event were captured in the comments section of the Instagram announcement. People pleaded for Linkin Park, Twenty One Pilots, and Tame Impala. Rumours are rife with potential performers like Niall Horan, Twenty One Pilots, Blink-182, Oasis, Linkin Park, Pitbull, Harry Styles, Tiesto, David Guetta, Dom Dolla, and Fred Once again. Thanks to his latest single, “Victory” the final artist featured in Lap, which was published in many portions showcasing various artists, may be one of the most in-demand performers right now.
Drawing from this year’s Lollapalooza India fest, fans have experienced the electrifying music of Green Day, Sting, Shawn Mendes, OneRepublic, Jonas Brothers, The Strokes, Jackson Wang, Eric Nam, Imagine Dragons, Louis Tomlinson, Humankind, AP Dhillon, DIVINE, and many more at Lollapalooza India. Each artist brings their unique sound to the festival, ensuring an unforgettable experience.
The rise of international concerts in India
Lollapalooza India 2025 is just one of the major international concerts that have taken place in the nation this year. Coldplay opened out 2025 with two sold-out gigs in Ahmedabad and Mumbai. Those lucky enough to witness a May concert in India were treated to a once-in-a-lifetime experience by the legendary American hard rock band Guns 'N Roses. The lineup included original members Axl Rose on vocals and guitar, Slash on lead and bass, Duff McKagan on bass, Dizzy Reed on keyboards, Richard Fortus on rhythm guitar, Frank Ferrer on drums, and Melissa Reese on keyboards. A month earlier, on April 19, Nas, a major figure in East Coast hip-hop, was the headlining act at Mumbai's The World Reunion event.
Following this, we have the highly acclaimed American rapper Travis Scott, who will be performing in Delhi at Jawaharlal Nehru Stadium on October 18 and 19 and in Mumbai at Mahalaxmi Race Course on November 19. Additionally, Spanish music legend Enrique Iglesias will be making his long-awaited return to the country after a thirteen-year absence. Along with Steven Wilson—the man behind Porcupine Tree—and Senegalese-American musician Akon, electronic dance music (EDM) superstar DJ Snake will be visiting India later this year for a six-city Sunburn Arena tour.
