As Lollapalooza India returns to Mumbai on January 24–25, 2026, BookMyShow Live is focusing as much on seamless fan access as on the festival experience itself
When a global music festival lands in a city like Mumbai, the ripple effect is felt far beyond the stages. Streets grow busier, timelines fill up and the city’s rhythm shifts to festival mode. As Lollapalooza India returns to Mumbai for its fourth edition on January 24 and 25, 2026, BookMyShow Live is placing as much emphasis on how fans arrive as on what they experience once inside.
Set to take place once again at the iconic Mahalaxmi Racecourse, Lollapalooza India 2026 is being planned in close coordination with city and transport authorities, with a clear focus on smooth mobility, reduced congestion and hassle-free access for tens of thousands of attendees expected over the two-day weekend.
For the first time in the festival’s history, Mumbai’s Aqua Metro Line becomes a key access point to Lollapalooza India. Attendees can alight at Science Centre Station (B2 Exit), just minutes away from a newly created second entry gate at the venue,designed specifically to improve crowd flow and entry efficiency.
To further incentivise sustainable travel, festivalgoers arriving by metro can redeem a free beverage by showing their festival wristband and metro ticket at the designated counter inside the venue. The offer is available on a limited, first-come-first-served basis.
BookMyShow Live’s popular #TakeTheTrain initiative also returns this year, encouraging fans to commute via Mumbai’s local trains. Attendees can travel to Mahalaxmi station for quick and convenient access to the venue, bypassing road congestion.
In keeping with its fan-first approach, the festival is offering complimentary beverages to those arriving by train as well,redeemable by presenting a valid train ticket and festival wristband at the venue counter, subject to availability.
For those looking for a more structured commute, Cityflo’s dedicated shuttle services will operate to and from the venue. Attendees can reserve seats in advance via the Cityflo app by selecting their pickup point, festival drop-off, date, time and preferred seat. Booking confirmations will be shared directly via email.
Organisers have reiterated that there will be no parking available at the venue, urging attendees to opt for public transport or shared mobility. A dedicated Uber pick-up and drop-off zone will be operational at NSCI Dome, ensuring smoother traffic management around the festival perimeter.
Early arrivals are also being encouraged,not just to avoid peak-hour crowds, but to catch opening acts and make the most of the full festival experience.
Beyond logistics, the planning reflects a broader philosophy driving BookMyShow Live’s approach to large-scale live events: collaborating with cities, not overwhelming them. By aligning early with civic bodies and transport partners, the company continues to refine how global festivals can be responsibly staged within India’s dense urban ecosystems.
With infrastructure aligned, access thoughtfully planned and Mumbai fully geared up, getting to Lollapalooza India 2026 is designed to be as seamless as the experience inside. As the stages are set and the city begins to hum with anticipation, Mumbai is ready to welcome fans for two unforgettable days of music, culture and high-voltage energy.
