Pitbull Returns to India for Fourth Time; To Perform in Delhi-NCR and Hyderabad This December


Global music sensation Pitbull is set to make a grand return to India this December with his I’m Back tour — marking his fourth visit to the country. The Grammy Award-winning artist will perform at the HUDA Grounds in Gurugram on December 6 and at Ramoji Film City in Hyderabad on December 8, 2025, promising fans two unforgettable nights of high-octane music and energy.

“It’s truly an honor to perform back in India, we look forward to bringing the party back,” said Armando Christian Pérez, famously known as Pitbull. “Touring the globe continues to show fans around the world that music is the universal language that unites genres. Daleee!” he added.

Pitbull, fondly known as Mr. Worldwide, has had a long-standing relationship with Indian audiences. His first performance in India took place in 2011, followed by his appearance at the 2017 IPL opening ceremony at Eden Gardens, where he shared the stage with Bollywood superstar Shah Rukh Khan. He returned in 2019 for another live concert in Mumbai and even performed at Anant Ambani and Radhika Merchant’s wedding celebrations in 2024, alongside singer Guru Randhawa.

Indian fans also remember his hit collaboration with Priyanka Chopra on the 2013 single Exotic, which seamlessly fused Bollywood beats with Pitbull’s signature Miami rhythm — cementing his status as one of the few global artists to achieve mainstream success with an Indian collaboration.

Reflecting on his past experiences, Pitbull once said, “The kind of love and affection I received was overwhelming. The people of India are really warm. I enjoyed performing in front of such a huge and welcoming audience.”

The I’m Back India tour is being produced and promoted by BookMyShow Live, which has promised a spectacular live experience featuring Pitbull’s biggest hits — including Give Me Everything, Timber, Rain Over Me, and Fireball.

Tickets for both shows go live at 12 PM (noon) on October 25, giving fans the chance to secure their spot for one of the most anticipated international concerts of the year.

With his signature charisma, infectious energy, and global hits, Pitbull’s return promises to be a celebration of music, unity, and pure entertainment — a night that Indian fans won’t soon forget.

Oscar and Grammy Winner Jon Batiste to Perform in India for the First Time in 2025


Written by Intern Queeny George M.H , Team Allycaral

Globally acclaimed artist Jon Batiste is officially heading to India this year for two unforgettable live performances in Delhi-NCR on November 24 and Mumbai on November 26, marking his much-anticipated India debut. The multi-talented musician — a seven-time Grammy winner, Oscar-nominated composer, and cultural icon — is currently on his Big Money Tour: Jon Batiste Plays America, celebrating the release of his ninth studio album Big Money, which dropped on August 22, 2025.

The India leg of his tour comes after a series of high-profile achievements that have defined Batiste’s meteoric rise over the past few years. His 2021 album We Are broke records with 11 Grammy nominations across seven different categories — a historic feat. In 2023, his follow-up World Music Radio earned five Grammy nominations. That same year, he received an Oscar nomination for “It Never Went Away,” the emotionally stirring track from his Netflix documentary American Symphony.

More recently, Batiste’s Beethoven Blues stunned the classical world by topping Billboard’s Classical Albums Chart for nine weeks. He also made waves with a standout Super Bowl halftime performance, cementing his place as one of the most versatile and magnetic performers of this generation.

Now, Indian audiences will finally have the opportunity to witness Batiste’s genre-defying sound — an exhilarating fusion of jazz, classical, funk, gospel, and soul — in a live concert setting.
