The iconic global music festival Lollapalooza India 2023 opens its gate for music lovers soon! With excitement levels flying through the roof, BookMyShow unveils a sneak peek into what will welcome all patrons when they step into Lollapalooza India 2023 – The Wall of Inclusivity in Expression at Lollapalooza India 2023.
Keeping to its ethos of creating entertainment-led experiences in Art & Music amongst other genres for the lesser privileged, BookASmile, the charity initiative of BookMyShow has collaborated with the Aravani Art Project, an art collective of people from the transgender community along with Mumbai-based artist Suparna Jashnani to bring to life The Wall of Inclusivity in Expression at Lollapalooza India 2023. The gigantic 100-ft landscape has been created by the collective’s Trans-women members putting brush to tin all week long to create a massive, vibrant mural that speaks to the spirit of this festival, our city and its people.
The Wall of Inclusivity in Expression is a kaleidoscope depicting the quintessential life of Mumbaikars, the flavour of Lollapalooza India 2023 and the essence of BookASmile. From quirky illustrations of Mumbai’s iconic story like the Gateway of India at Apollo Bunder built during the 20th century and the most photographed landmark in the city, or death-defying local transport like Kaali-Peeli taxis and auto-rickshaws that weave in and out of our city streets with gay abandon, the phrase ‘packed-in-like-sardines’ takes on a new definition when you experience travel in our ever dependable BEST buses and Mumbai Local trains, our Dabbawallas who outshine any food delivery app, and of course the pulse of this city – its celebrations and street food be it vada pav, cutting chai & nimbu soda. All the cacophony and chaos that is Aamchi Mumbai is reproduced on the canvas of The Wall of Inclusivity in Expression, interspersed with intricate patterns, symbols, thoughts and words.
Staying true to its name of being one of the boldest, brightest, most colourful and most diverse festivals around the world, Lollapalooza India 2023 will feature some of the most vibrant hued Instagrammable spots including the Lolla Ferris Wheel which will give you a 360-degree view of the entire festival and its vibe, the iconic giant Lollapalooza India Inflatable proudly hoisting the India flag along with the seven other countries that the festival has globally travelled across, the 16-ft high Lolla Rubik’s Cube teamed up with all the colours of the spectrum and grey matter in one frame, the Wall of Rotating Blocks which is an installation of Neon rotating blocks that move with a single touch taking you through one Lollapalooza India element one after another making for your unique photo-op and so much more!
That’s not all, the festival will truly be an experience of a lifetime with innovative culinary selections, art, fashion and much more to be witnessed.
So, it’s time to wear those amazing outfits, put on your sunglasses, lather on some sunscreen and head to the coolest festival in town!
