BIG69 is India’s first heavy metal festival offering a well-curated, full-scale festival experience. This festival is supported by Pepsi MTV Indies. For one weekend in January, the industrial environs of Richardson & Cruddas in Byculla (Mumbai) will become ground zero for metal in India. Besides a lineup packed with international and sub-continental talent, BIG69 will also feature great food stalls, art installations, and the kvlture project - a special showcase of art and iconography associated with heavy metal.

The line-up for the first year includes UK death metal legends Carcass, English prog metal titans Sikth, English rap metallers Hacktivist, Italian technical death metal act Fleshgod Apocalypse, Bombay Metal Project, Kryptos, Demonic Resurrection, Undying Inc, Inner Sanctum, Zygnema, Noiseware, Providence, Joint Family, Plague Throat and many others.

BIG69 is an extension of the same ideals and commitment to fans that made B69 Mumbai’s most beloved underground venue for metal and hard rock. When we shut down, we made a promise that we’d be back. And here we are - bigger, better and even more brutal.

See you in the pit! \m/
