Yungblud, born Dominic Richard Harrison, turned his first-ever Lollapalooza India set into a headline moment in Mumbai on January 24, 2026.

Yungblud debuts in 102 seconds in Mumbai
Yungblud’s whirlwind debut at Lollapalooza India 2026 at Mumbai’s Mahalaxmi Racecourse cut together a 102-second montage of arrival chaos, cricket with locals, temple rituals, and a shirtless stage dive in front of 10,000 fans. The energetic vlog leans hard into immersion, including avoiding meat per temple custom and savoring masala mocktails, while he teases a rapid turn toward the Grammys for the nominated “Zombie” track
Yungblud’s rock show built on people
Rolling Stone India described Day 1 as a seamless collision of hip-hop, synth, indie, punk, and pure fandom energy, with hip-hop artists dominating the lineup. Still, the outlet wrote that it was Yungblud who emerged as the day’s performative epicenter, adding, “The British firebrand didn’t just run through a setlist; he detonated it. The report highlights the aching intensity of “Zombie” and the defiant, sky-punching release of “Hello Heaven,” calling the performance raw, chaotic, and strangely cathartic.In the lead-up, Yungblud talked big and went bigger. “I’m going to show you guys what British rock and roll is. I’m going to give it everything I got, best set of the weekend at Lollapalooza, or your money back,” he told Rolling Stone India. Onstage, he scaled stage rigs, leaned into the crowd, and sang like someone trying to tear open his chest in front of thousands.
