Frenzy For Diljit Dosanjh’s Concert In New Chandigarh

Punjabi singer Diljit Dosanjh is set to perform a concert on December 12 at the Maharaja Yadavindra Singh International Cricket Stadium in New Chandigarh. On Thursday morning, a threat of a bomb blast during the event was receiveda similar threat had also been issued a few days earlier. However, the enthusiasm of Diljit Dosanjh’s fans far outweighed the threat.

The fans responded to the threat in their own way. The threat was received on Thursday morning, and ticket bookings opened at 3:00 PM. Within just two hours, more than 95 percent of the tickets were sold. Over 30,000 tickets out of the stadium’s 38,000-seat capacity were snapped up in that two-hour window.

Tickets were categorized for booking, excluding seats located behind the stage. Prices ranged from ₹999 to ₹13,999, with bookings available exclusively online. The ₹999 tickets were sold out within five to ten minutes.

Following this, only the more expensive ticket categories remained available, leaving fans who had hoped for the lower-priced options disappointed. Given the threat, security arrangements for the event will be extremely stringent.

Previous Show Held In December 2024

Prior to this, Diljit performed in Chandigarh at the Exhibition Ground in Sector 34 as part of his ‘Dil-Luminati’ tour in December 2024. During that event, he publicly criticized the UT (Union Territory) administration from the stage for delays in granting permissions and for poor organization.

Additionally, local residents raised concerns about hosting large-scale concerts at the Sector 34 grounds, citing issues such as increased noise pollution, inadequate parking, and traffic congestion. Consequently, the administration subsequently banned such concerts from being held in Sector 34. A concert by singer AP Dhillon, scheduled for two weeks later, was moved from this venue to the Sector-25 Rally Ground. A show by Karan Aujla has also already taken place in Chandigarh.
