Nightlife in India is limited in most places, except for major cities like Mumbai, Delhi, Bangalore, Chennai, Hyderabad, Kolkata etc.

However, those cities offer a lively nightlife scene with fancy bars, nightclubs, and a thriving performing arts culture. Visitors to larger towns and tourist hotspots can enjoy cultural shows featuring a variety of traditional Indian dance and music performances.

Delhi holds film festivals all year round. The renowned Raj Mandir cinema in Jaipur is the go-to destination for a Bollywood film screening experience, complete with plenty of audience engagement.

Goa is the only state in India where casinos are allowed, as gambling is heavily restricted. It is also known as the party state, with world-class clubs and beach gatherings being the norm during high season.
