Live Music & Concerts in Kolkata
63 events coming up across Kolkata — mostly music (63). 2 are free.
Kolkata listens to everything, and the venues are sorted by scale. Touring arena acts play the open grounds at Aquatica near New Town or Netaji Indoor Stadium beside Eden Gardens. Nazrul Mancha at Rabindra Sarobar, the Science City auditorium, Kala Mandir and Dhono Dhanyo in Alipore take film-music nights, Bengali bands and mid-sized tours. Park Street keeps its band tradition alive at Someplace Else in The Park hotel and at Trincas. Classical music has its own winter season, led by the all-night Dover Lane Music Conference at Nazrul Mancha each January, and Rabindra Sangeet evenings run through the year at Rabindra Sadan and neighbourhood halls. College fests add free and cheap gigs from December to February. This page lists concerts, gigs and recitals across Kolkata, Howrah, Salt Lake and New Town, refreshed daily.
