Date: Friday, August 21, 2026 Venue: Mehboob Studio, Bandra West Entry: Free for Spotify Premium members via the app’s Premium Rewards section Tickets: No public ticket link exists. Registration happens inside the Spotify app for Premium subscribers.
Spotify brings back its I-Pop Icons Live showcase for a second edition, with a lineup that includes Anuv Jain, Rashmeet Kaur, Paresh Pahuja, Taaruk Raina and Harrdy Sandhu performing across genres from indie storytelling to Punjabi pop.

2. Retro Rewind with Aditya Narayan, Mumbai
Date: Saturday, August 22, 2026 Venue: Phoenix Marketcity Entry: From ₹699 Tickets: No live BookMyShow or District event page was found at time of writing. Booking is expected to go through BookMyShow closer to the date, per AltBollywood’s reporting.
Aditya Narayan takes on a sixties-through-nineties setlist built for a Mumbai crowd that grew up on the same songs. At ₹699 as the entry point, this is the most accessible ticket on the month’s calendar, which makes it a strong pick if you’re introducing friends or family to a live concert for the first time.

3. HYFIT Games, Mumbai
Date: Saturday, August 22 (3 PM) and Sunday, August 23 (6 AM), 2026 Venue: The Ballard Pier Downtown Experience Centre Entry: From ₹1,399 Tickets: Register directly on hyfitgames.com
For a change of pace from concerts, HYFIT Games is an indoor fitness race built for everyone from first-timers to seasoned competitors, with 200-metre runs, functional workout stations and mobility challenges.

4. Royal Enfield GRRR Nights x Underground, Mumbai
Date: Sunday, August 23, 2026, 2 PM Venue: Richardson & Cruddas (1972) Ltd, Byculla Entry: From ₹799 Tickets: Buy directly on District
This one is built for motorsport fans: custom bikes, drag and drift stunts, live MMA and DJ sets under one roof, headlined by hip-hop duo Seedhe Maut, with Royal Enfield’s “Guerrilla Maut Ka Kuan” wall-of-death act as the centrepiece. Consequently, it draws a mixed crowd of petrolheads and nightlife regulars who might not otherwise cross paths at the same event.

5. Pete Tong, One Night Only Mumbai
Date: Thursday, August 27, 2026, 9 PM Venue: antiSOCIAL, Lower Parel Entry: From ₹999 Tickets: The date is confirmed directly on Pete Tong’s official tour page; a local ticket link on District or BookMyShow was not yet public at time of writing.
BBC Radio 1 broadcaster and DJ Pete Tong plays an intimate club set at antiSOCIAL as part of his “One Night Only” run. For electronic and techno listeners, this is arguably the standout international booking of the month, staged in a smaller room than most touring DJs get in Mumbai.

6. Rashmeet Kaur Live, Mumbai
Date: Friday, August 28, 2026, 7 PM Venue: Sophia Bhabha Auditorium Entry: From ₹1,499 Tickets: Buy directly on District
Punjabi folk and indie-pop singer Rashmeet Kaur, known for tracks like Bajre Da Sitta and Janiye, headlines a full set at Sophia Bhabha Auditorium a week after her Spotify I-Pop Icons appearance. Her setlist typically mixes contemporary indie pop with folk instrumentation, so expect a broader range than a single-genre gig.

Anime India is the city’s largest anime and manga convention, with cosplay competitions, merchandise stalls, panel discussions, creator meet-and-greets, and dedicated exhibitions themed around titles like Demon Slayer and Spy x Family.

9. Lenny's Kids Concert Tour, Mumbai
Date: Saturday, August 29, 2026, 11 AM and 4 PM Venue: Dublin Square, Phoenix Marketcity Entry: From ₹2,000 Tickets: Register for the India & Thailand leg on Lenny Pearce’s official site
Australian DJ Lenny Pearce turns familiar kids’ tunes into a daytime EDM set, aimed at children roughly aged three to eight. It’s the priciest ticket on this list, which tracks with family shows generally, and it’s part of his first-ever “Toddler Rave World Tour,” so organisers expect it to sell out earlier than the adult-focused events on this list because parents tend to book weeks in advance.

10. Usha Uthup Live, Navi Mumbai
Date: Sunday, August 30, 2026, 8:40 PM Venue: Vishnudas Bhave Natyagruha, Vashi Entry: From ₹999 Tickets: No live event page was found for this specific date at time of writing. District currently lists a separate Usha Uthup show in Mumbai on October 23; the August 30 Navi Mumbai date is expected to book through BookMyShow closer to the date.
Legendary singer Usha Uthup closes out the month with a set built around chartbusters like Hari Om Hari, Ramba Ho and Darling. The venue is in Vashi rather than Mumbai proper, so factor in travel time from South or Central Mumbai if you’re planning to attend.

How to Plan the Rest of Your August in Mumbai
If you have one weekend: Go with August 28 to 30. Rashmeet Kaur on Friday night, Anime India across the full weekend, and Padel All Stars or Lenny’s Kids Concert Tour on Saturday give you music, sport and a full-day convention without leaving the last week of the month.
If you’re on a tight budget: Retro Rewind with Aditya Narayan (₹699) and Royal Enfield GRRR Nights (₹799) are the two most accessible tickets on the calendar, and both fall in the same week.
If you’re planning around kids: Lenny’s Kids Concert Tour on August 29 is the only event on this list built specifically for children aged three to eight. Register for early access now. It’s part of Lenny’s first-ever world tour, and organisers expect it to sell out ahead of most adult shows this month.
If nightlife and electronic music is the priority: Pete Tong’s set at antiSOCIAL on August 27 is the standout international booking of the month, in a smaller room than most touring DJs get in Mumbai.
