Things to Do in Mumbai This Week

The events below are the best things to do in Mumbai this week, refreshed daily from listings across the city, Thane and Navi Mumbai. If you are planning by interest: theatre-goers have Prithvi Theatre in Juhu, the NCPA at Nariman Point, the Royal Opera House in Girgaon and the Marathi stages of Dadar and Thane; music fans can choose between arena shows at the NSCI Dome, concerts at NMACC in BKC, classical recitals at the NCPA and Shanmukhananda Hall, and gigs at antiSOCIAL in Lower Parel; and stand-up runs nightly in small rooms from Khar to Andheri. For daytime plans, Kala Ghoda packs CSMVS, Jehangir Art Gallery and the National Gallery of Modern Art into a ten-minute walk, the Dr. Bhau Daji Lad Museum and the zoo share a compound in Byculla, and Sanjay Gandhi National Park and the Kanheri Caves fill a morning in Borivali. Marine Drive, Bandstand, Carter Road and Juhu Beach are free at any hour. The calendar is busiest from October to February, from Navratri and Diwali to the Kala Ghoda Arts Festival; from June to September the monsoon moves most events indoors. Many museums close one day a week, so check before you go.
