American rock act Linkin Park, hip-hop star Playboi Carti, R&B singer-songwriter Kehlani, British rock artist Yungblud and more are top-billed acts at the upcoming Lollpalooza India 2026 lineup, taking place on Jan. 24 and 25, 2026 at Mahalaxmi Racecourse in Mumbai.
The full lineup announcement comes a day after Linkin Park confirmed to fans via newsletter that they were among the headliners at the multi-genre music festival and the first tranche of early bird tickets across categories selling out within hours.
With general ticket sales now resuming, fans can look forward to synth-pop acts like LANY and The Midnight (who last performed in India in early 2024), electronic artists like Sammy Virji, Knock2 and Hamdi, Japanese pianist and singer-songwriter Fujii Kaze, singer-songwriter Calum Scott (also returning to the country after shows in 2024), U.K. jazz/soul/dance band Nubiyan Twist, Canadian indie rock band Mother Mother, Manchester pop-punk/rock band Hot Milk and more.
Playboi Carti—who released his chart-topping album Music earlier this year—brings with him his label mates in Opium for a showcase, which brings in hip-hop artists like Ken Carson, Destroy Lonely and Homixide Gang. The electronic spectrum gets further diversified with artists like Baalti, Bunt., MU540 and Nate08.
Among the Indian draws at Lollapalooza India 2026 are multi-instrumentalist Karsh Kale, singer-songwriter Ankur Tewari and The Ghalat Family, experimentalist collective Excise Dept, music duo OAFF x Savera and Punjabi beatsmith Mxrci in what is a rare live act.
Singer-songwriters like Gini, Zoya, Pho, Rudy Mukta and Rounak Maiti add more diversity, as do rock bands like Sen, Still In Therapy, Zokova and Trance Effect, folk-rockers Gauley Bhai, post-hardcore act Pacifist, psychedelic act Sunflower Tape Machine and singer-producer Sijya.
BookMyShow Live, the live entertainment experiential division of BookMyShow, spearheads Lollapalooza India as the promoter and co-producer for the festival’s Indian edition along with global producers, Perry Farrell and C3 Presents.
