The Sherp is as surprised as you are!

Moving away from the sandy shores of Goa, VH1 Supersonic has moved to a greener pastures, literally. This time, the party is going down at the countries hottest event capital, Pune. The three day long festival is scheduled to take place on February 10, 11, and 12.

Being a prime youth destination and also often referred to as ‘The Oxford of he East’, Pune makes quite the obvious choice for the move. In the past, Vh1 Supersonic has hosted Vh1 Supersonic Arcades in the city, with headliners by Above & Beyond, Dash Berlin and Pretty Lights, to name a few. They received an overwhelming response so the waters have been successfully tested.

Deeply-rooted in culture and traditions, the city is known for its openness towards modern influences and thought. Pune is a seamless blend of local culture and global influences, thereby making it an apt destination for the upcoming edition of Vh1 Supersonic!
