This weekend, Delhi NCR is packed end to end — from an Australian indie legend headlining Cyberhub and a ten-day Ganpati mahotsav lighting up Netaji Subhash Place, to a Sufi mehfil in Mayapuri, an Italian market pop-up in Gurgaon, and enough stand-up, theatre and nightlife to fill three days on their own. Here’s what’s worth planning around.
