There will be an electrifying public concert on April 29 and 30, featuring a diverse lineup of local, national, and international artistes. Each performer will bring their unique beats to the stage, making it an unforgettable experience for music lovers.
Day 1 of the concert will feature K-Pop artiste Kim Woojin as the headliner, while day 2 will showcase Delhi-based band Twin Strings as the headlining act. But that’s not all! There are other incredible artistes you would not want to miss, including Lynx, Ricaa Stella, Banrap, Rum & Monkeys, LB3, Young Natee, Larger Than 90, and DJ Favian, to name a few.
The concert promises to be a mesmerising experience that will leave you spellbound. What’s more, the entry is entirely free.
