Bryan Adams’ Gurgaon Concert Marred By Poor Traffic And Ground Management, Fans Slam Organisers
While Bryan Adams fans in Gurgaon enjoyed the music, attendees shared their frustration about poor ground organization and traffic management.
India has a massive love for music and in recent years, several international artists have performed here. Since Bryan Adams announced his So Happy It Hurts tour in the country, it created a lot of excitement among fans. After his performances in Kolkata and Shillong, he entertained fans in Gurgaon on December 12, by delivering an unforgettable show. However, while fans enjoyed the amazing music, many were unhappy with the event’s management.
On social media, attendees shared their frustration about poor ground and traffic management. Some felt suffocated in the crowd, others mentioned chaotic situations in the parking areas.
In every Indian city Bryan visited, he received a grand and enthusiastic welcome from fans. However, his Gurgaon concert faced backlash due to poor event management. People even accused Zomato and its CEO, Deepinder Goyal of overselling tickets beyond the venue’s capacity. Others criticized the local authorities while pointing out that if they were capable of managing large events like the Kumbh Mela, they could have done a better job organising Bryan’s concert.
A user wrote, “The organizers of the Bryan Adams show, commendable job done by selling 100k tickets, next time you do such an event, rent parking lots and inform with proper signs. It’s a no-smoking zone, so you should not sell at the venue.”

Another shared, “Bryan Adams’ music is from my teens. Incredible that he’s still performing at this level, decades later. Great performance in Gurgaon. Terrible organisation & traffic management. Can’t believe the same people who pull off a Kumbh Mela can make such a mess at other times.”

An individual shared, “Nightmare of parking at Bryan Adams’ concert last night in Gurgaon. Vehicles stopped 800 meters from the concert venue. Look at the Creta’s rear tyre hanging in the air.”

Another wrote, “Lovely to watch Bryan Adams perform in Gurgaon, but this was easily the worst arranged concert I’ve been at anywhere. Traffic gridlock, garbage everywhere, the crowd was fab, however and that and the music made up for it.”

One more added, “Went 2 the Bryan Adams concert. The music was great but there was a really large crowd and I was suffocated. Daughter had nowhere 2 sit after standing for so long, a shame. Only one food stall, chaotic parking w only 1 entrance n exit, little to no planning. Could not see any happy returning faces. Definitely could’ve been better.”
