Post Malone took the stage in Guwahati for his first-ever solo headline performance in the country in Guwahati on Monday, December 8.
Kayan kicked off the evening with her warm vocals and genre-fluid sound set the tone for the night, the perfect prelude to Post Malone’s set.
A mellow, immersive performance that drew everyone in, with Kayan’s style keeping the crowd grounded, yet electrified. She delivered some of her most popular songs such as ‘Cool kids’, ‘Good kinda love’ and ‘Hold me down’ which showcased her signature blend of soulful R&B, indie vibes and raw emotion.
By the time Post Malone stepped onto the stage, the atmosphere transformed into something electric. Dressed in his signature relaxed style, he wore a white T-shirt featuring a graphic of the Indian map with the Taj Mahal prominently depicted and ‘India’ inscribed below.
With a guitar slung over his shoulder, he stepped into the spotlight to a roar that swept across the Khanapara Veterinary Ground. From the very first chord, the connection was instant. His seamless blend of rap, rock, pop and country unfolded like a cinematic journey, shifting effortlessly between soaring guitar-driven moments and laid-back anthems that had the crowd singing along to every lyric.
Reflecting on the concert, Naman Pugalia, Chief Business Officer - Live Events, BookMyShow, said, “Tonight in Guwahati showcases the continued evolution of India’s live entertainment landscape. Post Malone’s ability to draw audiences across generations and cultures reflects a new India confident, connected and firmly positioned within the global music ecosystem. The overwhelming response from the Northeast reaffirms what we have long believed: the country’s cultural appetite is expanding rapidly, with emerging regions proving ready to host world-class talent. This performance is not just an artistic milestone but a clear signal of how global entertainment experiences are evolving across India."
Echoing this, Padmapani Bora, managing director, Assam Tourism Development Corporation (ATDC), commented, “Assam is entering an exciting new phase with the introduction of our Concert Tourism Policy, designed to position the state as a leading destination for international cultural experiences. Post Malone’s debut headline performance in Guwahati tonight marked a significant step in this direction bringing world-class music talent to the region while generating wider economic and cultural opportunities.”
Much like his celebrated international shows, Malone crafted an emotional arc rather than a conventional setlist during the show that was produced and promoted by BookMyShow Live, and Live Nation in collaboration with the Government of Assam.. From ‘Rockstar’ and ‘Congratulations’ to ‘Circles’ and ‘Sunflower’, he captivated fans with his biggest chart-toppers. At one point, he turned to the crowd and said, “I am grateful to be back in India and in Zubeen Garg’s homeland”. These were the moments when the venue erupted, phones lit up and thousands of voices merged into one giant chorus an energy Guwahati experienced for the very first time.
