Discover what's worth doing in Delhi this entire week!
The post-Holi blues (I mean that literally – some of our faces are still stained blue) must be banished. And Delhi’s got a plan for you: an action-packed week full of music, comedy, art, and more.
Big ticket items are the Yo Yo Honey Singh concert as well as the Russell Peters comedy tour – his largest ever in India so far. Shows by other comics are also plentiful, including the Divine Feminine tour by Prashasti Singh, another by Delhi’s favourite munda, Aakash Gupta, and a third by crowd favourite Anubhav Bassi.
If you’re a superfan of all things pop culture (or anime, cosplay, comics), then you’ll be excited to know that Gurugram’s first-ever Comic Con is happening this week! Grab tickets while they last.
On the art front: some exhibitions are nearly over (The Gatecrasher, Satish Gujral 100, Songlines) so catch them before they disappear forever. Or visit the Triveni Kala Sangam to celebrate 75 years of their glorious existence.
If Blue Eyes or Brown Rang ring a bell, this event is all yours to enjoy at. Honey Singh is bringing his highly anticipated ‘My Story: India Chapter’ to the capital mid-month, and those who follow his music will know that a ticket to a three-hour gig is going to be absolutely action-packed.
When: 7pm, 14 March
Where: TBD
Tickets: Starting from ₹2,500
Bassi brings his hugely popular show to Taalkatora. Expect stories, chaos, and smooth-as-butter punchlines. Fair warning: if you’re in the front rows, you may become part of the set.
When: 13 March 2026, 7pm
Where: Taalkatora Indoor Stadium
Tickets: ₹800 onwards
How to reach: Shivaji Stadium (Orange Line) or Patel Chowk (Yellow Line). A cab is easiest.
Cosplay, gaming arenas, comics, anime merch, and committed fan energy. This is the first Gurugram edition, and it’s going big. There are competitions, performances and plenty of stalls to empty your wallet at. One standard pass a day, or if you’re keen, a premium Crunchyroll Power or Superfan pass!
When: 14–15 March 2026, from 11am
Where: Gymkhana Club Grounds, Sector 29, Gurugram
Tickets: ₹900 onwards
How to reach: Millennium City Centre or IFFCO Chowk (Yellow Line), then walk.
Delhi does theatre very well, and March has a packed calendar. Keep an eye on Mandi House billboards and venue Instagram pages for details – several plays need prebooked tickets, of course, but others you can just drop in at.
Notable shows this month include:
Tauba Tek Singh (LTG Auditorium, 21 March)
Pagla Ghoda (Lok Kala Manch, 14 March)
External Affairs (Sriram Centre)
Book early where required, as smaller venues fill fast.
You can count on Russell Peters’ jokes to keep you on the edge of your seat. The internationally acclaimed stand-up comic’s razor-sharp observational humour and crowd work cannot be missed, and keep in mind this is his largest-ever India tour, with shows lined up across Pune, Bengaluru, Mumbai, Hyderabad, Chennai, and Kolkata.
When: March 15, 7pm
Where: Yashobhoomi, Sector 25, Dwarka, New Delhi
Tickets: ₹2,000 and up
How to reach: Dwarka Sector 25 Metro Station on the Delhi Metro Airport Express line is your best shot. It gets trafficky in the area post about 9pm, so have your cab sorted in advance.
The popular Indian pop-rock group, on a nationwide tour, is known for remixes of old classics like Gulabi Aankhen, Gale Lag Ja, and Pehla Nasha. All in all, it’s a concert with great sing-along energy.
When: Sunday, 15 March, 7.30pm
Where: Nexus Select City Walk, Saket, New Delhi
Tickets: ₹1,300 onwards
Delhi’s favourite comic Aakash Gupta uses theatrical elements like caricature and voice modulation in his sets – this latest one being based on gut health, awkward encounters with taxi drivers, and a childhood spent near a jail.

Where: Plenary Hall, Bharat Mandapam, Delhi
Tickets: ₹1,500 onwards
The iconic spring garden inside the Rashtrapati Bhavan remains open to the public only on a few days a year, and it’s worth a visit in spring – meticulously groomed flower beds, terraced lawns, water channels and more, plus loads of in-season flowers.

Where: Rashtrapati Bhavan, North Avenue, New Delhi
Tickets: Free. Register online.
This solo exhibition by the renowned Mumbai-based artist features paintings within paintings (with characters engaging in visual dialogues with the subject) and blurred portraits exploring abstract themes around memory and perception. Typically how you’d look at things without being noticed, hence titled The Gatecrasher. You’ll spot the artist in person on Saturdays.
When: Until March 10
Where: Vadehra Art Gallery, Defence Colony, New Delhi
Ticket: Free
The place in Delhi has felt like home to the city’s creative community for 75 years. ​Started as Mrs. Sundari Shridharani’s dream in two small rented rooms above a coffee house in Connaught Place, Triveni Kala Sangam has grown into a huge multi-storied gallery and the cutest cafe. They’ll be hosting an archives exhibition, live performances, heritage menu and public talks from 27th Feb to 15th Mar. Follow @triveniterracecafe for the schedule.
Where: 205, Tansen Marg, Mandi House, Delhi
​When: 27th February – 15th March 2026
Tickets: Free
How to reach: Get off at Mandi House metro station and walk for a few meters to the venue.
The exhibition at the National Gallery of Modern Art (NGMA) is an ode to one of India’s most celebrated, most daring artists. The show, said to have been five years in the making, is curated by Kishore Singh in partnership with the Gujral Foundation, and spans 167 works tracing the artist’s life.
What to expect: It’s an incredibly moving show. The displays encompass his works, juxtaposed with old photographs that piece together his career as a painter, collector, artist, and cultural thinker, alongside his life with his family. Much of the work spans the horrors of Partition, but also his time in Mexico. One to watch out for is Mourning en Mass, along with gorgeous sculptures and reliefs, and some of his personal items.
When: Until March 30
Where: NGMA, Delhi
Chennai-born singer-songwriter RANJ and producer Clifr are bringing a new live set built around their just-released debut mixtape 27 Club, a sprawling 27-track project on Azadi Records that moves through desire and selfhood across trap, R&B and hip-hop, switching fluidly between English and Tamil. They won’t be back in Delhi for a while! There’s obviously also the added bonus of it being in one of the city’s coolest art galleries – catch Alida Sun’s exhibition RITES while you’re at it.
When: Friday, March 13, 6pm onwards
Where: Method, Defence Colony
Tickets: ₹799 for entry, ₹1,299 for entry + 3 drinks. Available on District.
