American rapper and songwriter Ye, formerly Kanye West, will be making his much-anticipated debut in India on Mar. 29, headlining a stadium date at Jawaharlal Nehru Stadium in New Delhi.
Ye’s first-ever India concert is part of his 2026 world tour and will be presented by White Fox, Plush Entertainment, and Wizcraft International.
Even though the Grammy-winning artist has visited India before, reportedly in 2009, staying at an ashram, and in 2012 for his fashion ventures, Ye has yet to perform in the nation.
The announcement concludes years of speculation around a possible India concert.
The Jawaharlal Nehru Stadium in New Delhi has a capacity of 60,000 and has become a key destination for international tours since its redevelopment ahead of the 2010 Commonwealth Games.

Reports have suggested that, according to organizers, the show will be in a similar format to Ye’s recent headline runs, with large-format visuals, expansive staging, and a setlist expected to span his catalogue, from early 2000s releases to later-era material.
The India show comes as Ye prepares to release his upcoming album, ‘Bully.’
The tickets are officially set to go on sale on Feb. 18 on District by Zomato.
The India date follows early 2026 shows in Mexico City and precedes Ye’s one-off European stop at Vitesse Arnhem’s GelreDome stadium in the Netherlands on Jun. 6, with another performance scheduled later in Italy.
