Rolling Loud India has announced its 2026 lineup, with Burna Boy, Metro Boomin, and Skepta set to perform in India for the first time at the festival's second edition on December 12 and 13 with Karan Aujla returning as a headliner for a second consecutive year.
Burna Boy and Metro Boomin close day one on Saturday (December 12). Burna Boy won a Grammy for best global music album for Twice as Tall, while Metro Boomin's debut solo album, Not All Heroes Wear Capes, topped the Billboard 200 in 2018. Big Sean also makes his India debut that day, alongside GoldLink, Dhanda Nyoliwala, Slayr, Paal Dabba, SoSoCamo, Steel Banglez, Snappy Kaal, and Jorjiana.
Aujla leads day two on Sunday (December 13) and was the first global Punjabi artist to headline Rolling Loud India at the festival's 2025 debut. Skepta joins him for what is billed as his only India show, shortly after the November 6 release of The Fork and Knife, his first solo album since Ignorance Is Bliss in 2019. Schoolboy Q, Seedhe Maut, BabyChiefDoIt, Wazir Patar, Raja Kumari, Mary Ann Alexander, Navz-47, and Robb Bank$ complete the day's bill.
The organizers say more than 10 acts with Indian roots are spread across both days and every tier of the lineup. They represent Punjabi, Haryanvi, Tamil, Marathi, and Gujarati rap, along with Delhi's Seedhe Maut.
"One thing that really stood out to us in India was how open the fans were to everything," Rolling Loud co-founder and CEO Matt Zingler said in a statement. District CEO Rahul Ganjoo said the first edition's crowd stayed put between international and Indian sets, which shaped how this year's lineup was built.
Tickets are on the District app. A "Reserve Now, Pay Later" option lets fans pay 50% upfront and the rest by 11:59 p.m. on November 20, and a refund guarantee covers cancellations until December 1.
The venue is yet to be announced.
