Lollapalooza's arrival in Mumbai is the first time the festival has been staged in Asia after branching out from its American origins in the past decade.
One of the world's longest-running festivals kicked off in Mumbai Saturday for the Indian financial hub's biggest music extravaganza since the end of the pandemic.
Lollapalooza's arrival in Mumbai is the first time the festival has been staged in Asia after branching out from its American origins in the past decade.
Crowds thronged the Mahalaxmi racecourse near the centre of a city that, before the disruption of the COVID-19 pandemic, was increasingly becoming a popular tour stop for leading international artists.
"I think it's huge -- it's the first major American festival to come to India, I couldn't miss it," Narayani Anand, 29, told AFP.
