For starters — as per an exclusive Pinkvilla report — April 2026 is the window when Kanye is expected to hit the stage in India, but there’s no word yet on which cities he’ll visit or which venues will get picked. Ticket info? Still under wraps. Reportedly, and expectedly, the show could be massive, maybe even the biggest international solo act India’s ever seen because, let’s face it, Kanye pulls a crowd everywhere he goes.Here’s the quick rundown:Timing: April 2026 (expected)Exact dates: Still waitingCities and venues: Not announced, but big metros are in the mixTickets: Waiting for official newsFans are glued to their screens, just waiting for Kanye’s team to drop the first announcement.

Who is Kanye West?
Kanye — now known as Ye — isn’t just a rapper. He’s won 24 Grammys, produced and designed for some of the biggest names around, and shaken up both music and fashion. Albums like ‘The College Dropout’, ‘Late Registration’, ‘My Beautiful Dark Twisted Fantasy’, and ‘Yeezus’ changed the game. He blends hip-hop, gospel, electronic, and whatever else he feels like, and he’s never shied away from pushing boundaries. Tracks like “Stronger” and “Ultralight Beam” didn’t just top charts — they changed the direction of pop music.And it’s not just about music. Kanye’s Yeezy brand turned him into a fashion heavyweight, and he’s worked with some of the biggest designers out there.However, it’s not all hits and sold-out arenas. Kanye’s career has been full of controversy, especially lately. He’s faced heavy criticism for making antisemitic comments and putting out provocative songs — one track even got called out for a “pro-Hitler” theme and led to canceled shows and public backlash.
