Lollpalooza India 2025 is back with a genre-defying lineup and it’s everything a music lover’s dreams are made of. Brace yourselves for an electrifying mix of legendary icons, global superstars and emerging artists that will light up the stage with performances spanning genres, sounds and moods.
Mark your calendars for March 8th – 9th, 2025, as Lollapalooza India 2025 returns to Mumbai transforming it into a musical marvel with four stages pulsing with energy and over 20 hours of non-stop live performances. Following the massive success of its first two editions, the largest multi-genre music festival is now gearing up for an even more exciting weekend at its transcendent third edition that will carry forward the legacy of the most diverse music festival to enter India and the Asian sub-continent.
BookMyShow Live, the live entertainment experiential division of BookMyShow, is spearheading Lollapalooza India as the promoter and co-producer for the festival’s Indian edition along with global producers, Perry Farrell and C3 Presents.
Leading the pack is punk-rock titan Green Day, one of the world’s best-selling bands of all time, making a historic India debut. With more than 75 million records sold worldwide and 10 billion cumulative audio/visual streams, Green Day’s relevance persists through their enduring anthems – like American Idiot, Boulevard of Broken Dreams and Good Riddance (Time Of Your Life), that continue to ignite passion and inspire, proving that their music is as timeless as it is powerful.
GRAMMY-nominated, multi-platinum singer/songwriter, Shawn Mendes, known for his captivating performances and chart-topping hits like In My Blood, Treat You Better and new single Why Why Why, returns to the live stage after more than two years. Whether you’re moshing to Green Day’s raw energy or singing along to Mendes’ soaring melodies, these headliners alone guarantee an unforgettable weekend.
Staying true to the core essence of Lollapalooza, joining Green Day and Shawn Mendes is a lineup that’s as diverse as it gets. Former member of the boy band One Direction, Louis Tomlinson makes his highly anticipated India debut, which will have fans belting out every lyric, while Glass Animals, known for their hit single, Heat Waves, brings their hypnotic, genre-blurring sound to the stage. EDM powerhouse Zedd and the unstoppable John Summit will be dropping beats that will have you dancing your hearts out. And for those who live for rock, Nothing But Thieves are ready to blow the roof off with their magnetic anthems.
Hip-hop heads will be vibing to Big Boi, one-half of legendary rap duo Outkast delivering a masterclass in hip-hop with his signature Southern style, while India’s rising rap star Hanumankind whose recent record-breaker Big Dawgs went viral topping multiple global music charts, brings raw energy and thought-provoking lyrics that are guaranteed to get the crowd hyped.
The eclectic sounds of Cory Wong, an American guitar virtuoso known for his infectious funk and jazz-infused style, the ethereal vibes of Aurora and the high-energy beats of Alok, a Brazilian electronic music powerhouse, will ensure there’s something for everyone. Plus, India’s very own Raftaar x Kr$na will light up the stage with a home-grown twist on rap that’s bound to shake the ground.
The excitement doesn’t stop there. Discover emerging talents like Dot., wave to earth, a South Korean indie band blending rock and jazz and Isabel LaRosa, a Cuban-American pop artist setting the groove. Legendary sitarist Niladri Kumar will take you on a sonic journey unlike any other. Add in the soulful tunes of Lisa Mishra, the unmistakable voice of Raman Negi and the genre-bending artistry of Dhanji and you have a lineup that will leave a lasting mark on your heart.
Lollapalooza India 2025 also shines a spotlight on new and cutting-edge acts like Sahil Vasudeva, Anushka and indie darlings LULLANAS, ensuring a showcase of raw, fresh talent that will keep you hooked from the first note to the last. With Sid Vashi, Raghav Meattle, Sudan, Tawliinder and experimental producer Spryk also joining the diverse roster, this year’s festival is truly one for the books!

I’m not a big birthday person, but thirtieth birthdays are a big deal. I had spent my twenty-ninth celebrating with friends old and new in Bombay at Lolla 2023, and when rumours of Travis Scott headlining for 2024 began circulating, it seemed like the same party was about to go international. Friends from all over the world were looking into tickets, texting their door ke rishtedar who might have vacant rooms in Bombay—all trying to make it for what was going to be “a moment.” Travis Scott in India.
The rumours didn’t materialise and my birthday stayed local.
