Lollapalooza India 2026: the festival taking over the heart of Mumbai

Lollapalooza India 2026 is coming to the Mahalaxmi Race Course in Mumbai as one of the most exciting music events at the start of the year, this time in a special late-January slot. The festival takes place on January 24 and 25, 2026, while the start of the program on the first day is announced for January 24 at 11:00, allowing visitors to experience a full-day journey from the first performances to the late-night headliners. A ticket for this event is valid for two days, so one single package opens the doors to the entire festival weekend, with more than twenty hours of music spread across four large stages and a rich supporting program. The fourth Indian edition of the festival brings a mix of global stars and local names, so many music lovers have been planning this weekend in Mumbai for months in advance. If you want to be part of that experience live, it’s wise to plan ahead – interest is high, and tickets for festivals like this typically sell out fast, so secure your tickets for this event now and be ready for the moment the stages open.

The global Lollapalooza brand and its journey to India

Lollapalooza began in the early 1990s as an American touring festival, and over time it has grown into one of the world’s best-known music brands, with its flagship edition in Chicago and a series of international versions. It was founded by Perry Farrell from the band Jane’s Addiction, and over the years the festival has built a reputation as a meeting place for alternative rock, metal, hip hop, electronic music, pop, and a range of crossover styles, with an emphasis on live energy and an all-day festival experience. Today, Lollapalooza exists as a network of events in multiple countries, including the Indian version in Mumbai, where since 2023 the festival has been held precisely at the Mahalaxmi Race Course, bringing the global concept into an Asian context. Through its first three years, India has already shown how strong its appetite is for major open-air festivals, with editions featuring Imagine Dragons, The Strokes, Sting, or Green Day, and Lollapalooza India has quickly established itself as one of the region’s key stops for international tours. That’s exactly why each new edition generates a special hype, and tickets become a kind of seasonal pass to the global music calendar — only this time the stage is in the heart of Mumbai.

Line-up and stages: more than forty artists across four big stages

Lollapalooza India 2026 is announced as a two-day music spectacle with more than forty artists spread across four stages, meaning the audience will be able to choose between rock, hip hop, pop, R&B, electronic, indie, and experimental genres at practically any moment of the day. At the very top of the line-up stand out Linkin Park, who will be performing in India for the first time on this occasion, followed by Playboi Carti, Yungblud, and Kehlani as representatives of contemporary rap, punk, and R&B aesthetics, while pop and synth-pop colors are carried by artists such as LANY and Calum Scott. On the other side of the spectrum are Fujii Kaze, Mother Mother, Knock2, as well as a number of artists who have already won over festival crowds at other Lollapalooza editions around the world and are now arriving at the Mahalaxmi Race Course. A special place in the program is held by Indian and regional indie forces, including Bloodywood, Ankur Tewari & The Ghalat Family, Karsh Kale, OAFF-Savera, MXRCI, Baalti, and a number of younger names such as Sena, Zoya, Pacifista, Gauley Bhai, Sunflower Tape Machine, and Trance Effect. The two-day ticket lets you plan without rushing which day you’ll devote to which stage and genre, turning ticket purchase here into planning your own mini festival within the big Lollapalooza universe.

Linkin Park and the big stars driving demand for tickets

The biggest draw of Lollapalooza India this year is without a doubt the performance by Linkin Park, a band that has sold more than one hundred million album copies, won several Grammy Awards, and left a deep mark on the rock and nu-metal aesthetics of the turn of the millennium. Their classics such as In the End, Numb, or Crawling are part of a generational soundtrack worldwide, and in recent years the band has delighted fans with new material like Lost, Friendly Fire, and a compilation of unreleased songs, further reigniting interest in live shows. This will also be their first performance in India, which is why a rush of fans is expected from across the country and the wider region, turning two-day tickets into a mini pilgrimage to Mumbai. Alongside them, attention is also drawn by Playboi Carti with his dark, experimental trap sound, the high-energy Yungblud who blends punk and pop, and Kehlani whose R&B and soul bring a different emotional tone to the same festival, while Calum Scott, Fujii Kaze, and Mother Mother round out the range of atmospheres from intimate ballads to explosive choruses. Since Lollapalooza India 2026 simultaneously targets fans of rock nostalgia, modern hip hop, alternative pop, and the regional indie scene, demand for tickets is rising across all audience segments, so it’s reasonable to assume the best spots on the lawn will be taken by those who secure their tickets for this event in time and are already planning which day they’ll come and how to use the full potential of the two-day festival ticket.

Mahalaxmi Race Course: a green stage in the middle of the concrete jungle

Mahalaxmi Race Course isn’t an ordinary festival venue — it’s a historic racetrack built as far back as the late nineteenth century on what was then the marshy area of the Mahalaxmi Flats, and today it stretches across approximately 225 hectares of open green space in the very heart of South Mumbai. The oval track, about 2,400 meters long, surrounds a vast lawn where stages, technical infrastructure, and festival zones are set up, while on one side there is a view of the Arabian Sea and on the other the recognizable city skyline of high-rises and bridges. The complex is managed by the Royal Western India Turf Club, and its historic grandstand and status as a kind of green-lung wing of the city make it a unique place for outdoor events, among which Lollapalooza holds a particularly prominent spot. In more recent times there has also been talk of a plan to turn part of the area into a kind of central park, without disrupting horse racing and the historical value of the location, which only confirms how important this great meadow in the middle of the city is for everyday life in Mumbai. For festival visitors, all of this means a spacious lawn, wide corridors between stages, enough room to take a breather and snap panoramic photos — so it’s no surprise many decide to buy tickets precisely because they know they’re in for a combination of a big production show and the feeling of being in a seaside park.

Mumbai as the rhythmic backdrop to the festival weekend

Mumbai is India’s largest city and the country’s financial, film, and cultural center, so it’s no surprise it was chosen as Lollapalooza’s host on the Asian continent. A city where Bollywood is made, where millions of commuters ride local trains every day, and where skyscrapers loom over old colonial buildings, brings a special energy to every major event — and a music festival at the Mahalaxmi Race Course fits perfectly into that rhythm. Within a radius of a few kilometers are some of the city’s best-known attractions, from the sea and promenades to temples and diverse neighborhoods, so many visitors combine the festival weekend with a short city break. In that sense, Lollapalooza India isn’t just a series of concerts, but also an excuse to experience Mumbai as a living backdrop where day and night сменяются as quickly as the bands on the stages. Two-day tickets give enough time to spend part of the day in the city and another on the lawn in front of the stages, turning tickets into a key that opens both the festival and the city in the same adventure.

What a day at Lollapalooza India looks like

A typical festival day at Lollapalooza India starts as early as late morning, and for the 2026 edition it’s planned that the gates on January 24 will open at 11:00 so the crowd can arrive in time for the first sets and ease into the atmosphere. The early afternoon hours are reserved for indie artists, regional bands, and those just gaining global visibility, while later in the afternoon the program shifts toward bigger names, all the way into the evening and nighttime slots when headliners like Linkin Park or Playboi Carti take the stage. The four stages are laid out so the audience can move relatively quickly from one to another, but also find calmer zones for rest, food, or refreshments — and the festival typically offers a specially curated food park with local and international specialties, plus art installations and interactive zones. Part of the space is also dedicated to social and environmental initiatives through the Lolla for Change platform, where visitors can learn about organizations working in education, sustainability, or equal rights. Precisely because of this blend of music, gastronomy, art, and activism, many feel that the ticket’s value in practice goes beyond just the price of a concert, because a two-day stay at the festival becomes an experience that gets talked about for a long time — so if you want to be part of that story, it’s smart to buy tickets in time and secure your place in the front rows.

Practical information: getting there, accommodation, and organizing your stay

Mahalaxmi Race Course is located in the southern part of Mumbai and is very well connected by public transport, which greatly eases getting to the festival even for those visiting the city for the first time. The nearest railway station is Mahalaxmi on the Western Line of the local railway, from where you can reach the racecourse entrance on foot in a few minutes, and trains to that station run from key hubs like Churchgate and Mumbai Central throughout the day. In addition to the train, many city buses stop near the racecourse, and for late-night returns many visitors combine taxis or app-based rides with local trains, keeping in mind the crowds after the last concerts end. When it comes to accommodation, it’s practical to choose hotels and apartments in South Mumbai, the Worli area, or along the Western Line of the local railway to shorten travel time to and from the festival. A two-day ticket also means it’s worth thinking about logistics: plan an early departure, bring enough water, sun protection, light clothing, and comfortable footwear — and buying tickets via the button below is a logical first step after you’ve sorted travel and lodging, because without a ticket the whole plan stays only on paper.

Why make the most of the two-day ticket

A ticket valid for two days, in the context of a festival like Lollapalooza India, is a major tactical weapon for any visitor who wants to experience as much as possible — without unnecessary stress and sprinting from stage to stage. Since headliners and bigger names are spread across both days, a two-day pass lets you dedicate one day to your absolute favorites and use the other to discover new artists you may not have heard live yet, whether they’re local indie bands or international names still breaking through. In that way, the festival becomes a personally curated program where you can choose whether you’ll spend most of the first day in the front rows at the rock and metal stage, and move the second day to hip hop, pop, or the electronic stage — with enough time for breaks, food, and exploring festival installations. A two-day ticket also reduces the pressure that everything must be seen at once and gives you the luxury of listening to some sets all the way through instead of constantly checking the time and worrying whether you’ll make it to the next one. That’s exactly why many visitors skip one-day tickets from the start and opt for the two-day option, because the feeling that you still have another full day of music ahead is often the greatest value that tickets for this event can offer.Sources:

Culture & events desk

The editorial team for arts, music and events brings together journalists and volunteers who have spent years living alongside stages, clubs, festivals and all those spaces where art and audience meet. Our writing comes from long-standing journalistic experience and genuine involvement in cultural life: from endless evenings in concert halls, from conversations with musicians before and after performances, from improvised press corners at festivals, from premieres that end with long discussions in theatre corridors, but also from small, intimate events that attract only a handful of curious people yet remain engraved in their memory for a lifetime.

In our newsroom write people who know what a stage looks like when the lights go out, how the audience breathes while waiting for the first note, and what happens behind the curtain while instruments or microphones are still being adjusted. Many of us have spent years standing on stage ourselves, participating in programme organisation, volunteering at festivals or helping artist friends present their projects. This experience from both sides of the stage gives us the ability to view events not merely as items in a calendar, but as living encounters between creators and audiences.

Our stories do not stop at who performed and how many people attended. We are interested in the processes that precede every appearance before the public: how the idea for a concert or festival is born, what it takes for a comedy to reach its audience, how much time is spent preparing an exhibition or a multimedia project. In our texts we try to convey the atmosphere of the space, the energy of the performers and the mood of the audience, as well as the context in which all this happens – why a certain performance is important, how it fits into the broader music or art scene, and what remains after the venue empties.

The editorial team for arts, music and events builds its credibility on persistence and long-term work. Behind us are decades of writing, editing, talking with artists and observing how scenes change, how some styles come to the forefront while others retreat into the background. This experience helps us distinguish fleeting hype from events that truly push boundaries and leave a mark. When we give something space, we strive to explain why we believe it deserves attention, and when we are critical, we explain our reasons, aware of the effort behind every project.

Our task is simple and demanding at the same time: to be reliable witnesses of cultural and entertainment life, to write honestly toward the audience and honestly toward performers. We do not deal in generic praise; we aim to precisely describe what we see and hear, knowing that every text may be someone’s first encounter with a certain band, festival, comedian or artist. The editorial team for arts, music and events therefore exists as a place where all these encounters are recorded, interpreted and passed on – humanly, clearly and with respect for the very reason it exists at all: the live, real event in front of a real audience.
