Bandland is a two-day musical and cultural event that will take place at Bengaluru’s Embassy International Riding School Ground. The dates decided for this festival are December 16 and 17, 2023.
The first iteration’s lineup, which included 12 internationally renowned and domestic indie-rock icons, was outstanding. The festival’s headliners will be American rock legends Goo Goo Dolls and legendary British rock group Deep Purple.
Joining these headliners on stage are Australian punks Amyl and The Sniffers, who will be making an exciting debut in India, and American indie rockers The War on Drugs, who are ideal for lovers of Pink Floyd and Bruce Springsteen.
From Oldest Bands To The Newest

They are among the homegrown musicians and bands on the two-day schedule. Next-generation bands Parvaaz, The F16s, Aswekeepsearching, Skrat, Pacifist, and The Earth Below complete the roster.
