Last year

Three nights, three moods

Unmaad 2026 was themed Beats of the Streets. Day one closed with poetry and comedy from Ranmal Jain, day two with a Bollywood Night by Gajendra Verma, and the fest ended with a pro-show by Seedhe Maut and Raman Negi.

In between came the competitions, including B-School of Rock (battle of the bands), Haute Couture (the fashion show), Aahwan (street play) and Voice of Unmaad (solo singing).

Getting in

Competitions bring in students from colleges across the country; last year they took registrations on Unstop. In 2025 the Unmaad concerts were ticketed on District, open to all students in Bangalore, with tickets needed for ages 14 and up. We couldn’t find pass or ticket prices for 2026.

Getting there

IIM Bangalore is on Bannerghatta Road (560076).
