David Guetta Returns to India After Eight Years, Turns the Night Into a Singalong Party

Sunburn Festival: Day 2 of the Sunburn Festival was a full-fledged celebration of music and spectacle, with international EDM legend David Guetta triumphantly returning to India after an eight-year absence—his last show there was in 2017. David took over the main stage and transformed the evening into an incredible, high-energy event. He set the tone early by igniting the grounds with a smooth performance of hit songs that had everyone in the audience singing along.

Mid-set, he paused to connect with the audience, asking, “How are we feeling, India? Let me hear you all!”—a moment that drew thunderous cheers and underscored the deep bond he shares with Indian fans. Reflecting on that connection, Guetta added, “I’ve been a DJ since I was 14, and we are still together,” a sentiment that resonated strongly with long-time followers who have grown up with his music.

In terms of music, the performance was a master class in striking a balance between nostalgia and new vitality. Every single one of David's hits, such as "Titanium," "Play Hard," "Without You," and "Together," sparked enormous sing-alongs around the festival grounds. Additionally, he kept the audience engaged throughout by spinning his renditions of Fein, Where The Hell Is My Husband, Forever Young, and Give Me Everything Tonight. Lights, visuals, drops, and soaring melodies all came together in perfect harmony to heighten the feeling of occasion around his eagerly anticipated comeback.

A surprise appearance by Nora Fatehi, who had been involved in an accident a few hours before the event while travelling to Sunburn, added to the evening's most memorable moments. Towards the end of Guetta's performance, the performer joined him, providing a tantalising preview of their future partnership.

As the evening went on, Layla Benitez, Omiki, Script, and DJ Dali kept up the pace, and Almost Human and Friends brought the event to a spectacular close. As the hours went by and the festival grounds echoed with numerous songs blending into a single collective rhythm, the crowd moved fluidly between stages, dancing, singing, and taking in the range of sounds offered. Day 2 ended with spectators leaving the stadium buzzing with anticipation and fatigue, eager for Sunburn 2025's last day.
