Concerts & Live Music in Ahmedabad
20 events matching right now across Ahmedabad — mostly music (18), spiritual (1), festival (1).
Ahmedabad joined the international touring map in January 2025, when Coldplay played two nights at Narendra Modi Stadium and set the ground's attendance record of 111,989. The 132,000-seat stadium in Motera, the open grounds of GIFT City near Gandhinagar, the Sabarmati Riverfront events ground and EKA Arena at Kankaria are the addresses for the biggest shows. One level down, Bollywood playback singers, indie acts and Punjabi and Gujarati pop artists play the GMDC Ground, Club O7 in Shela and the lawns of the SG Highway clubs, while Tagore Hall and the Pandit Dindayal Upadhyay Auditorium take seated concerts, ghazal evenings and sugam sangeet. The city's own traditions run alongside: dayro nights of Gujarati folk song and storytelling, garba artists who fill grounds during Navratri, and the Saptak festival, which brings thirteen consecutive nights of Indian classical music from 1 to 13 January. Because Gujarat is a dry state, no concert here sells alcohol, whatever the tour sponsor. Outdoor season is October to March. This page lists concerts, gigs and recitals across Ahmedabad and Gandhinagar with dates, venues and ticket links, updated daily.

- For Narendra Modi Stadium, take the metro to Motera Stadium station. Gujarat Metro has extended services after major events in the past, but confirm on the day.
- GIFT City, Club O7 and SG Highway venues need a cab or your own vehicle. Agree a pick-up point away from the main gate.
- No alcohol is sold at any concert in Ahmedabad, and bringing it in is an offence under Gujarat's prohibition law.
- Open-ground shows are standing and dusty. Wear closed shoes and carry a mask if you are sensitive to dust.
- Buy only from the official ticketing partner named on the listing; resale tickets for big tours are frequently fake.

Narendra Modi Stadium in Motera for the largest tours, with GIFT City's open grounds, the Sabarmati Riverfront events ground, EKA Arena and the GMDC Ground also used for major shows.
Is alcohol served at concerts in Ahmedabad?

An annual festival of Indian classical music held in Ahmedabad from 1 to 13 January, organised by the Saptak School of Music since 1980.
How do I get home after a concert at Motera?
The metro station is next to the stadium, and late trains have been run after big events in past seasons. Otherwise walk away from the stadium before booking a cab, as roads nearby are closed or jammed.
