As the nation begins to breathe a little easier following the recent tensions, there’s a quiet but determined energy returning to the live entertainment sector—a readiness to reconnect, to rebuild, and to reignite what makes this industry so extraordinary.
In this spirit of renewal, EVENTFAQS Media is proud to confirm that the 5th edition of the Shows of India Conclave will take place as planned on May 22–23, 2025, at The Leela Ambience Convention Hotel, Delhi.
The past few weeks have been challenging for everyone—communities, businesses, and especially industries built on gathering and celebration. With events postponed and plans paused, the live entertainment ecosystem experienced an all-too-familiar stillness. But as a sense of stability returns to the region, so too does our belief in the unshakable power of live experiences.
More than ever, we need spaces that bring people together—not just physically, but emotionally, creatively, and economically. Shows of India is that space. A platform to regroup, to exchange ideas, to honour resilience, and to chart what’s next.
This year’s edition, promises an even stronger purpose. From music and theatre to branded IPs and immersive experiences, over 75 voices from across the live entertainment spectrum will take the stage—ready to reflect, reimagine, and rebuild. We will be announcing the speakers and partners in the coming days. Stay tuned for it.
Whether you’re an artist, producer, ticketing platform, venue operator, brand leader or backstage crew member—this is your moment to stand with your peers, share your voice, and shape the future.
Because the show doesn’t just go on—it comes back stronger.
And this renewed momentum will find its stage at The Shows of India Conclave 2025—a landmark event curated by Fierce Ventures and hosted by EVENTFAQS Media and EVA Live.
