With a staggering attendance at its second edition, BUDX concluded Day 2 with unparalleled experiences inclusive of some inspiring workshops, stellar performances and a perfect location, paving its way into the hearts of the Indian music enthusiasts.

Followed by the masterclass, the evening descended into a live gig at both the warehouse and District stage with an opening act by Lifafa. Keeping the momentum high throughout the gig, the event witnessed performances by Spacejams, Jamie Tiller, Detroit In Effect, DJ Ishani, Madstarbase, Seedhe Maut X Sez on the Beat and Foreign Beggars. The finale set by DIVINE got the entire crowd grooving along making it a magical evening.

Commenting on the success of Day 2, Kartikeya Sharma, Vice President Marketing-South Asia, AB InBev, opined, “At Budweiser, we strive hard to provide emerging and local artists with the right platform and direction that they seek. With collaborative efforts, we are certain that the brand is on the path to open gateways for the emerging music culture and artists. The overwhelming response BUDX received over the past two days stands testament of the sheer scope of the understated music industry of India. We are excited to be the energizers of such momentous events and look forward to the forthcoming edition of BUDX.”
