Korea’s Weverse Con Festival Expands to India
The launch of Weverse Con Festival India will be seen as another sign that the country's live music circuit is ready to take the next step.
HYBE’s flagship global music festival, Weverse Con Festival, is expanding to India for its international debut next March in New Delhi. This will mark the first-ever edition of the festival outside South Korea. Set for March 27–28, 2027, the two-day event will showcase a diverse lineup featuring global, K-pop, and Indian artists, as well as engaging live performances and fan-centered experiences.
HYBE and the superfan platform Weverse will partner on the India festival, which has yet to reveal its lineup. HYBE’s CEO, Jason Jaesang Lee, emphasized the importance of this expansion, stating that it aligns with the company’s 'multi-home, multi-genre' strategy and its commitment to India as a crucial market for HYBE’s global growth.
He added that the festival aims to create a unique experience by combining HYBE’s global capabilities with India’s creative talent. The launch of Weverse Con Festival India is seen as a significant step forward for the country’s live music scene, which has welcomed international acts such as Guns N’ Roses, Fred Again, Dua Lipa, U2, and Katy Perry in recent years.
The event is an extension of HYBE INDIA’s existing presence in the market, which has been actively scouting Indian talent through nationwide auditions since earlier this year. Tickets for the festival will be available exclusively through BookMyShow.
