Adams will perform at NESCO Centre, Goregaon. The whole concert will span three hours, from 7 PM to 10 PM. The tickets for his Mumbai concert are sold out.
How to reach: The nearest local train station is Ram Mandir on the Western Line. You can also reach the venue directly by road.
This is Adams' sixth visit to India, and he has a special connection to Mumbai. In an interview with mid-day.com, he had said, "My favourite memory of India is the first concert. We played in Mumbai in 1993. It was an absolutely packed cricket ground, and they had divided the ground in half with wooden posts, so on one side you had the audience, many of whom were in the traditional costumes, and on the other side of the wooden fence was the cricket club... drinking tea."
This multi-city India tour is an extension of the musician's global tour across USA, UK, Europe and Canada. Adams is touring in support of his 15th studio Grammy nominated album which comprised 12 rock anthems and powerful ballads.
This tour marks his sixth visit to India - the 1993-1994 tour was followed by multi-city gigs in 2001, 2006, 2011 with his last outing being with the Ultimate Tour in 2018.
After Mumbai, Adams will perform in the following cities:
Saturday, December 14 - Bengaluru
Monday, December 16 - Hyderabad
Tuesday, December 17 - Goa
