For a band that helped define alternative rock in the ’90s with anthems like Tonight, Tonight and 1979, this marks a monumental moment for Indian rock enthusiasts who have waited decades to experience Billy Corgan’s distinctive vocals and the band’s layered, atmospheric sound live on home soil.
The anticipation has been building for years, and now it’s finally happening. It’s not just a concert—it’s the return of that gritty, nostalgic energy we have all been missing.

This is the kind of raw, authentic rock experience that feels increasingly rare in today’s music landscape. Rock is finally having its moment again, and The Smashing Pumpkins India debut feels like the perfect catalyst to remind everyone why this genre has such enduring power and emotional resonance.
