Lollapalooza India has announced its lineup for the 2025 edition, scheduled to take place in Mumbai on March 8-9. Following the success of its first two iterations, the multi-genre music festival is expected to draw significant crowds with a roster that includes both international and Indian artists, catering to a wide range of musical tastes.
The 2025 edition will be headlined by Green Day, the iconic American punk rock band, performing in India for the first time. Known for hits like American Idiot and Boulevard of Broken Dreams, Green Day’s inclusion is expected to attract a large contingent of rock enthusiasts. Joining them is Canadian pop star Shawn Mendes, marking his return to live performances after a two-year hiatus. Mendes, whose hits include In My Blood and Treat You Better, is likely to draw a broad pop audience.
