Fans of The Chainsmokers have something exciting to look forward to this December. The Grammy-winning duo, Drew Taggart and Alex Pall, will perform in Mumbai on December 18, Delhi on December 19, and Bengaluru on December 20. The announcement comes nearly a decade after Closer became a global phenomenon. For many listeners, the song remains closely tied to memories of college fests, road trips, and late-night drives.
The Mumbai stop will see The Chainsmokers headline Sunburn Festival 2026 at Mahalaxmi Racecourse. For EDM fans, it marks the return of one of the most recognizable names in dance music. Sunburn has played a major role in shaping India’s electronic music scene over the years, and the festival continues to attract some of the biggest names in the industry. Thousands of fans are expected to attend the Mumbai event this December.
Few electronic acts have had the cultural impact enjoyed by The Chainsmokers during the 2010s. Songs like Don’t Let Me Down, Paris, Closer, and Something Just Like This reached audiences far beyond the EDM community. Their music became part of everyday life for many listeners and continues to resonate with fans even today. That lasting connection is one of the reasons their return to India has generated so much excitement.
What started as a festival in Goa has grown into one of India’s most recognized music properties. Over the years, Sunburn has introduced Indian audiences to some of the biggest names in electronic music while helping the genre reach a wider audience across the country. Bringing the festival to Mumbai’s Mahalaxmi Racecourse highlights the growing popularity of large-scale live events and the demand for international music experiences.
