The second edition of the Oddball Festival 2024 is scheduled to be held in the two cities of Delhi and Bangalore this February 2024. But with less than four days to go, the festival organizers have announced that they have decided to change the venue of the Delhi edition.
Earlier, the Delhi edition of the Oddball Festival 2024 was slated to be held in DLF Avenue, Saket. However due to the tense situation in the national capital due to the ongoing farmers’ protest, organizers BlueTree have decided to shift the venue from Saket to two new venues, one slated for each day of the festival.
The first day of the Delhi edition of the festival, on February 24, will now take place in Imperfect Patio, Gurugram. The second day of the festival will be held at The Piano Man, Eldeco Center, New Delhi on February 25. The news was shared by the festival’s official social media handles. However, the Bangalore edition of the Oddball Festival will proceed unaffected by its original schedule.
“Due to directives from local authorities and out of respect for audience concerns, we regret to announce a change in venue(s) for our upcoming event in Delhi”, read the official statement.
This last-moment change in the venue has also affected the line-up of the festival in Delhi. The organizers have also announced that The Raghu Dixit Project, Pacifist, Aswekeepsearching, Avial, and Noknok won’t be performing at the event this year.

“With a sense of disappointment, we’ve opted to shift indoors from our original outdoor location and trim down our artist lineup. We extend our apologies to the artists @theraghudixitproject @aswekeepsearching, @avialofficial @pacifist.india, and @noknoknewdelhi and their fans as we will be unable to include them in this year’s festival.”
The ongoing farmers’ protest in Delhi has affected several shows in the National Capital region. This agitation has also resulted in the cancellation of the English reggae/pop band UB40’s show in Delhi NCR, which was supposed to take place on February 16, 2024.
Tickets for the Delhi and Bangalore edition of the Oddball Festival 2024 are still available at Zomato Live, although there are very few limited tickets available for the Delhi event due to its indoor venue arrangement.
