A look at global numbers With this relocation, Maharashtra is aiming to tap into the lucrative and rapidly growing music tourism sector, while offering fans a new festival experience in a dynamic urban setting. From Goa to Mumbai Sunburn first lit up the sands of Vagator, Goa, in 2007, turning beach sunsets into bass drops and making international DJs a December staple. But the party hasn't always stayed put—between 2016 and 2018, it packed its speakers and made a detour to Pune before coming back to Goa. Mumbai, Aug 6 (IANS) Electronic Dance Music (EDM) festival Sunburn Festival is set to its 2025 edition in Mumbai, for the first time. In recent years, the festival has encountered growing local opposition and mounting bureaucratic roadblocks in Goa, nudging organisers to reconsider their long-term game plan. While Goa's palm-fringed coastline has long been the spiritual home of Sunburn, the move to Mumbai might just unlock fresh opportunities—logistically, commercially, and creatively.

Goa gave Sunburn its signature beachy vibe and barefoot freedom, but Mumbai's stepping in with skyscraper swagger, serious infrastructure, and a bigger, buzzier crowd. With its electric nightlife, culture-hungry crowd, and global flight map, the city might just take the festival from sandy grooves to stadium-level spectacles. Fans and organisers alike are now watching closely to see whether this bold shift will pay off. One thing's certain: Sunburn Mumbai 2025 is set to drop the bass and raise the bar as one of the most anticipated music events of the year.
