Multi-Grammy Award-winning pop icon Enrique Iglesias is set to make his highly anticipated return to India with a concert in Mumbai.
The gig, produced and promoted by EVA Live in partnership with BEW Live, marks the multi-platinum artist’s first Indian performance in 13 years, following his sold-out three-city tour in 2012. The concert is expected to draw over 30,000 attendees.
Iglesias will deliver a career-spanning setlist encompassing both iconic standards and contemporary chart-toppers from his three-decade-plus career.
“Bringing Enrique Iglesias back to India after 13 years is a truly historic moment,” said Deepak Chaudhary, founder and managing director of EVA Live, which hosted Bryan Adams in India last year. “The anticipation among fans has been palpable, and we are overjoyed to facilitate this reunion. With a resurgence of interest in iconic international acts, Iglesias epitomizes a timeless allure that bridges generations, and this tour reaffirms our dedication to delivering world-class entertainment while elevating India’s stature on the global touring stage.”
