February Is Only About Valentine's Day? No, These Events In Delhi NCR Prove Otherwise!

February in Delhi doesn’t need roses, candlelight dinners, or scripted romance to feel special. The city chooses a different kind of love language with music in stadiums, art on streets, stories in monuments, rhythm in gardens, and culture in public spaces. While Valentine’s Day gets a date, Delhi gives you a full month of experiences. Walls turn into canvases, parks become performance spaces, and neighbourhoods transform into festivals. It’s a season where the city stops being a backdrop and becomes the main character. February here isn’t about who you’re with, it’s about where the city takes you. So here are the 9 top events to attend in Delhi NCR that are not about Valentine's day.

1. Riders Music Festival

Riders Music Festival is pure throttle with zero brakes. It’s where roaring engines meet roaring bass, along with sports bikes, performance cars, and a genre-blending lineup colliding into one high-energy spectacle. With names like Papon, Nucleya, Seedhe Maut, Harsh Gujral and more, the festival jumps effortlessly from soul to hip-hop, indie to electronic, music to comedy. Add to that some custom rides, art installations, food zones, and interactive brand spaces, and RMF becomes less of a festival and more of a full-blown cultural adrenaline rush.

2. Karan Aujla P-Pop Culture India Tour

When Karan Aujla hits the stage with the P-Pop Culture Tour, it’s bound to be a cultural takeover. He 'Softly' takes over the stage with the swagger of 'Admiring You' and the power of 'Winning Speech'. Every beat that is put out in the universe by him is engineered to hit hard and stay longer in your head. You will get to witness Punjabi rhythms colliding with hip-hop energy, pop-culture drama, and a production scale that feels unapologetically global. This is high-voltage music, high-impact performance, and a night that turns the crowd into a chorus. It's a movement, a moment, and a new era of Punjabi pop, along with history in the making.

3. Sufi Heritage Festival

In the quiet beauty of Sunder Nursery, the Sufi Heritage Festival will unfold like a living poem. It's two days of soul-deep music, poetry, movement, and stories, where Sufi wisdom meets modern voices in the most graceful way. From spellbinding performances to craft workshops, artisanal bazaars, and heritage flavours, every corner invites you to slow down and introspect, something we all need. It’s not a loud festival, it’s a resonant one, the kind that lingers in your chest long after the last note fades.

When | 28th February - 1st March, 2026
Where | Sunder Nursery, Opposite Humayun’s Tomb, Nizamuddin, National Zoological Park, Sundar Nagar
Timings | 2 PM Onwards
Price | Rs 1499 Onwards

4. Dastaan-e-Kathak

This World Kathak Day, honour the art with Dastaan-e-Kathak: Anciently Mine- a live storytelling performance built around Kathak dance, classical music, and narrative. You can count on a fusion of rhythmic footwork, live musicians, and expressive movement that narrates stories through sound and motion. Not just a solo recital, but a layered performance with performers, music, and storytelling flowing together. Classical at its core, contemporary in presentation, and immersive in format, it’s Kathak as theatre, not just dance.

5. Indian Art Fair

India Art Fair feels less like an exhibition and more like a creative city built inside a venue. They have got bold installations, boundary-pushing contemporary works, modern masters, and galleries from across India and beyond- all in one electric space. There’s art you’ll admire, art you’ll question, and art you won’t stop thinking about after you leave. It’s not passive viewing; it’s walking through conversations, ideologies, and visual chaos curated into one powerful cultural experience.

When | 5th February - 8th February, 2026
Where | NSIC Exhibition Grounds, Okhla
Timings | 3 PM Onwards
Price | Rs 800 Onwards

6. Lodhi Art Festival

Lodhi Art Festival turns the Lodhi Art District into a living, breathing open-air gallery, and this year, it hits different as it celebrates 10 years of murals. Watch artists from across the world bring walls to life in real time, as sketches turn into stories and concrete turns into colour. Between live mural-making, art workshops, and spontaneous street performances, the district feels less like a neighbourhood and more like a creative carnival. It’s immersive, accessible, joyful, and proof that some of the best art in the city doesn’t live inside galleries.

When | 1st February - 28th February, 2026
Where | 18, Lodhi Rd, Gokalpuri, Institutional Area, Lodi Colony
Timings | Open All Day
Price | Free Of Cost

7. Amrit Udyan

Amrit Udyan is Delhi’s most elegant seasonal spectacle where symmetry, colour, and calm take centre stage. You will get to see blooming tulips, geometric Mughal gardens, flowing water channels, and perfectly manicured lawns that feel straight out of a postcard. It’s not your ordinary garden visit; it’s a slow, sensory walk through heritage, design, and nature in harmony. Come for the flowers, stay for the silence, leave with your camera full and your mind lighter.

8. Suraj Kund Crafts Mela

Surajkund Crafts Mela feels like walking through India in fast-forward. One minute you’re browsing handwoven textiles, the next you’re watching folk artists perform, and then you’re sampling regional flavours that don’t exist on restaurant menus. It’s not a marketplace, it’s a moving cultural map where craft, cuisine, music, and tradition collide. This one's loud, colourful, chaotic, and beautiful in the most authentic way possible.

When | 31st January - 15th February, 2026
Where | Surajkund Mela Ground, Surajkund, Faridabad
Timings | 10 AM - 10 PM
Book Your Tickets Here | Available On-Ground
