The world’s most successful virtual band, Gorillaz, is set to perform live in India for the very first time. Created by Damon Albarn and Jamie Hewlett, the BRIT and GRAMMY Award-winning British band will bring The Mountain Tour to two Indian cities in early 2027, in partnership with District by Zomato.
The tour follows the release of Gorillaz’s ninth studio album, The Mountain, an India-inspired record featuring collaborations with celebrated Indian artists including Asha Bhosle, Anoushka Shankar, Ajay Prasanna, Asha Puthli, Amaan Ali Bangash and Ayaan Ali Bangash.

Exclusive pre-sale tickets for Mastercard cardholders will be available on the District app from 1 PM IST on April 13, 2026, until 1 PM IST on April 18, 2026. General ticket sales will go live on the District app at 2 PM IST on April 18, 2026.

The announcement comes after a successful run of shows across the UK and Ireland and marks a significant moment for Indian music fans as Albarn takes the stage with the full Gorillaz live band and special guest performers, including several Indian collaborators from the album.
Damon Albarn said, “It has been and remains a dream of mine to bring Gorillaz in all its technicolour glory to India. It’s just the beginning and I truly look forward to the experience.”
Jamie Hewlett added, “Our dream has always been to do a tour of India. We’re very excited about returning to play shows in Mumbai and Bengaluru.”
Released on February 27, 2026 via the band’s independent label KONG, The Mountain continues Gorillaz’s tradition of global collaboration and genre-defying sound. The album features multiple international artists alongside its Indian collaborations, further expanding the band’s boundary-pushing discography.
Rahul Ganjoo, CEO, District by Zomato said, “Gorillaz coming to India for the first time in their 25-year history is momentous, and what makes it even more special is that their latest album was born here. India is woven into the very DNA of The Mountain, and bringing that music back to the country that inspired it will be a truly novel experience for audiences.”
Known for their immersive live shows filled with rich visuals and genre-bending music, Gorillaz has built a global following with iconic tracks such as “Feel Good Inc.,” “Clint Eastwood,” “On Melancholy Hill,” “DARE,” and many more. Their India debut is expected to be a landmark live music experience for fans across the country.
