Rolling Loud is coming back to India this December for its second edition, one year after <a href="https://www.mid-day.com/lifestyle/culture/article/american-hip-hop-festival-rolling-loud-to-make-its-debut-in-india-23567538" target="_blank" rel="none noopener">the international hip-hop festival made its debut in the country</a> in Mumbai.
Produced in partnership with and exclusively ticketed on District, Rolling Loud India has confirmed its return for December 12 and 13.&nbsp;
The return follows a debut edition that brought 65,000 fans through the gates of Loud Park in Navi Mumbai that saw the likes of Karan Aujla becoming the first Indian artist ever to headline the festival.
For a decade, Rolling Loud has pulled hip-hop's biggest names onto the stage, turning festival weekends into the moments the genre is remembered by. India's second edition carries that same thread forward: a lineup, to be announced, pairing marquee international artists with the country's leading homegrown talent. Beyond the music, the festival will bring its full run of on-site experiences, built to give fans a weekend that stretches well past the setlist.
<h2>India debut that made history</h2>
&ldquo;The first year showed us exactly why we wanted to bring Rolling Loud to India,&rdquo; said Matt Zingler, CEO and Founder of Rolling Loud. &ldquo;The energy from the fans was incredible and seeing <a href="https://www.mid-day.com/lifestyle/culture/article/lollapalooza-india-2027-check-the-full-artist-lineup-artist-bios-venue-and-ticket-details-23648144" target="_blank" rel="none noopener">international artists share the stage with some of the best talent coming out of India</a> made it really special. We&rsquo;ve always believed hip-hop is global, and India is becoming an important part of that story. Year two is about building on what we started and taking it even bigger.&rdquo; &nbsp; Rahul Ganjoo, CEO, District, said, &ldquo;When we brought Rolling Loud to India, we were confident it would resonate. What we saw in year one went further than that: the kind of love for a festival at this scale that we haven't seen before in the Indian market. That response is what's shaping how we're building the 2026 edition. We're excited to have India experience the World's Largest Hip-Hop Festival once again.&rdquo;&nbsp;
