Sunburn Festival Returns to Mumbai with an Exciting Lineup
The anticipation is building as the renowned Sunburn Festival prepares to make its spectacular return to Mumbai this December. After confirming its four main headliners—The Chainsmokers, Jason Derulo, DJ Snake, and Sebastian Ingrosso—the festival has unveiled a lineup that promises an unforgettable experience. Set to take place at the prestigious Mahalaxmi Race Course on December 18 and 19, 2023, the event will feature a diverse array of artists, ensuring that it caters to multiple tastes within the electronic dance music (EDM) scene.
Headliners and Their Impact
The first day of the festival, December 18, will see the energetic duo The Chainsmokers alongside pop sensation Jason Derulo. Both artists are household names, known for their chart-topping hits and electrifying performances. Their presence not only guarantees a party atmosphere but also enhances the festival’s reputation as one of the premier music events in the region.
On Day 2, DJ Snake, a global icon known for his infectious tracks and collaboration with stars across genres, will share the stage with Swedish DJ Sebastian Ingrosso. Ingrosso, recognized for his contributions to the legendary trio Swedish House Mafia, returns to the same venue where they performed eight years ago, creating a nostalgic link for fans who have followed his career.
A Reunion of Familiar Faces
What makes this year’s Sunburn Festival particularly special is the return of familiar names to the lineup. Artists like NERVO and Nucleya have had a long-standing relationship with Sunburn, having performed at various editions since 2013 and beyond. NERVO, the Australian duo, energized fans during a three-city tour back in 2013, while Indian DJ Nucleya has been a staple at previous festivals, including the 2017 edition in Pune. Their returns not only signal a commitment to quality but also a celebration of Sunburn’s enduring legacy.
A Rich Tapestry of Genres
Beyond the headliners, the festival will present a multifaceted lineup that showcases a variety of EDM styles. ACRAZE adds a house twist, while Laidback Luke brings decades of experience spanning house and electro genres. The roster includes Ookay, who represents the bass-heavy segment of the lineup, and Sofi Tukker, known for their infectious live electronic performance. The presence of Emma Heesters, who blends mainstream pop with electronic elements, offers fans the chance to see a crossover act that complements Jason Derulo’s style.
An Expansive Supporting Lineup
In addition to the marquee names, the festival’s supporting lineup is impressive. Acts such as 19:26, Annabel Stop It, BARTS, and Citizen Kain are set to elevate the event with their unique sounds. The festival aims to incorporate both established names and up-and-coming talent, resulting in a lineup that is as varied as it is exciting.
Noteworthy supporting artists also include Sartek, Teri Miko, Pierre Ravan, and Sixth Ocean, expanding the festival’s scope to include a rich blend of Indian and international music. This approach not only highlights the festival’s dedication to promoting local talent but also invites a global audience to experience the vibrant Indian music scene.

Beyond the incredible lineup, attendees can look forward to an immersive festival atmosphere. Hosted by MC Haits, the two-day celebration will provide a platform for artists to connect with fans while offering a range of interactive experiences. Tickets for this much-anticipated event are available exclusively through BookMyShow, encouraging early purchase to avoid disappointment.
