Kanye West Reportedly Planning First-Ever India Performance in 2026

According to an exclusive report from Pinkvilla, Kanye West is eyeing India for a potential concert date in April 2026. While official dates and venues remain under wraps, this would mark Ye's first-ever performance in the country.

While it's unclear whether this will be a single show or a multi-date run, the news comes amidst a period of complex international touring prospects for the artist. West has visited India before, including a trip to an ashram in 2009 and a 2012 visit to Mumbai to launch his menswear line.

India has become a major destination for global music tours recently, hosting acts like Travis Scott, Post Malone, Green Day, Shawn Mendes, Coldplay, Ed Sheeran, Dua Lipa, Maroon 5, and Justin Bieber.

This potential India performance follows a period of controversy for West, with some venues and festivals cancelling appearances due to his past remarks. However, he is still scheduled to perform at RCF Arena in Reggio Emilia, Italy on July 18, 2026 – his first European show since 2014.

The reported India dates also align with the anticipated (and long-awaited) release of his album, Bully, now slated for January 30th.

Here's the reported tracklist for Bully:
