Buying tickets for shows in Mumbai
Mumbai’s main stages sell tickets through their own websites and box offices. A few simple rules help you get good seats.
Updated October 2026
Book direct
The safest way to buy is through the venue’s own website or box office. The NCPA’s calendar covers Western classical music, Indian music, theatre, dance and its International Jazz Festival; NMACC lists The Grand Theatre’s musicals and concerts.
Plan ahead
Big international shows, such as CHICAGO at NMACC (21–31 January 2027), sell early. Prithvi Theatre is closed on Mondays, and its box office opens from 1pm to 9pm.
