The Guwahati concert marks the first-ever performance by Guns N’ Roses in Northeast India. The show will be held at Khanapara Veterinary Ground in Guwahati.
The band previously performed in Bengaluru and Mumbai in 2012. They returned to India in May 2025 for a show in Mumbai, their first visit in over a decade.
Guns N’ Roses will perform in India across two cities this November. They play NICE Grounds in Bengaluru on November 14 before heading to Guwahati on November 17.
Both shows are produced and promoted by BookMyShow Live. The concerts form part of the Asia leg of the band’s ongoing world tour.
The tour also coincides with the release of two new singles, “Nothin'” and “Atlas”. These are the band’s first original recordings since 2023.
Guns N’ Roses were formed in Los Angeles, California in 1985. The band’s lineup for the India tour includes frontman Axl Rose, guitarist Slash, bassist Duff McKagan.
During their 2025 Mumbai show, the band performed hits. It included “November Rain,” “Welcome to the Jungle,” “Sweet Child O’ Mine,” and cover of Bob Dylan’s “Knockin’ On Heaven’s Door.”
