The multi-genre iconic music festival, Lollapalooza, is all set to make a grand comeback in India with its much-awaited third edition in 2025. This year, the festival will be hosting a vibrant mix of music and culture along with lifetime experiences, keeping pace with the growth as the leading multi-genre event in the Asian sub-continent.
Plying its way back to Mumbai on 8-9 March 2025, Lollapalooza India will again turn the city into a buzzing paradise for music lovers amidst the beautiful prelude of spring. The festival is entering its third year in a row, and with every passing day, the city welcomes and celebrates the comeback so badly awaited.
The highly awaited Lollapalooza India 2025 tickets go live: Early Bird tickets will go live for all on 5th September 2024 at 12 pm. This year, other than the GA and Lolla Lounge ticket category, Lollapalooza India is pleased to introduce the new category known as Lolla Comfort – a major upgrade in the concert experience. Lolla Comfort is a private area with the sale of refreshments available for those seeking additional comfort and convenience but without wanting the full premium lounge experience cost. The fan-friendly-designed Lolla Comfort offers comfortable seating options beneath shade, ease of access to food, air-conditioned restroom facilities-all to ensure a superior experience for all attendees.
BookMyShow Live, the live entertainment experiential business from India’s leading entertainment destination BookMyShow is spearheading Lollapalooza India as a promoter and co-producer for the festival’s India edition along with the global producers, Perry Farrell and C3 Presents.
Over two path-breaking editions, Lollapalooza India has set fire on the stage, bringing down a treasure load of ‘firsts’ to the Indian music fraternity. From pioneering the multi-genre music festival to an all-steel international stage-VerTech stage-brought in by BookMyShow Live, the event has carved out an immersive, interactive space wherein a fan, artiste, and brand shake hands.
Lollapalooza India is committed to sustainability, inclusivity, and accessibility via #LollaForChange. For the third year in a row, there will be viewing platforms for patrons with disability and sign language interpreters at all main stages. Lollapalooza India also continues its pledge to a greener event by reusing, reducing and recycling of waste. Inclusivity and greening practices have remained at the center of the festival’s drive. BookASmile, the charity initiative of BookMyShow, has driven effective projects at Lollapalooza India 2024, refurbishing and donating over 100 musical instruments to aspiring young musicians from humble backgrounds, and Lollapalooza India encourages public transportation, whereby over 30,000 festival attendees have chosen to travel green, abetted by campaigns such as ‘Take The Train’ and partnerships with Chalo bus and Uber. The event was also presenting this year’s latest Indian beats and has lined up a string of #RoadToLolla pre-parties across major Indian cities.
Engagement with participating brands is one of the major highlights of Lollapalooza India, with the immersive brand experiences spoken of by festival attendees year after year. With deep integrations with some of the biggest brands, Lollapalooza India has carved a niche as a festival that extends beyond music into memorable interactions for fans. This year also looks promising, with global and home-grown brands like Budweiser 0.0 Non-Alcoholic Beer, Johnnie Walker Refreshing Mixer Non-Alcoholic, and many significant brands returning for the third time in a row to support Lollapalooza India. These are bound to upgrade the festival experience by bringing their best to connect with festival-goers in exciting and innovative ways.
Having played host to upwards of 80 International and Indian artists, and magical moments shared with tens of thousands over the 2023 and 2024 editions, Lollapalooza India is all set to return, promising an unparalleled musical and cultural experience.
