The band, who had initially expressed a desire to visit India only during Diwali, will now be performing in two cities giving audiences a world-class extravagant experience, with stage production of the likes of which this country has never witnessed before. The band has delivered some hit platinum-selling singles like "Save The World," "Greyhound", “One” and “Miami To Ibiza” that have gained top positions on international charts and continue to be top favorites at many clubs.
On the occasion, Nikhil Chinapa, Director, Submerge & Festival Director, Sunburn, states, “When the Swedes announced they were disbanding they broke a billion hearts across the world and in India too. For all of India’s dance music fans, the One Last Tour is going to be your last chance to see and hear the Swedes together. Their music has brought people of different backgrounds together in a way that’s impossible to describe. I’m looking forward to hearing 20,000 Indian voices, who belong to different cultures, speak different languages and have different customs and traditions, singing “Who’s gonna save the world” and “Don’t’ you worry child…”together. Join us as we celebrate life and love as One, with the Swedish House Mafia in India.”
Speaking from across the globe, Steve Angello from the Grammy nominated Swedish House Mafia reiterates, “We are extremely excited to connect with our fans in India and India was a strong contender on our final tour touring calendar. Infact Axwell has been telling us for years to visit India for it’s vibrancy when it comes to dance and music and it’s great that Submerge has made this a reality for us. This is going to be our last tour to India for the very first time and we are hoping you are ready!”
In perspective of the band’s announcement of disbanding, many Indian fans were left inconsolable. But in light of this latest global confirmation, music connoisseurs will get a mind blowing opportunity to witness the band in their full glory. With numerous global artists making a headway into India, we are certain that this act by Swedes will give every dance music fan an unforgettable memoir.
India will finally be on the global EDM map this fall with all praises reserved for India’s proficient music maker and connoisseur - Nikhil Chinapa! The release of the tour dates have caused fans worldwide to take to social networking sites and share their excitement over the highly anticipated show. One Last Tour will be highly emotive as the band bid a final farewell to their fans across the world with an underlying promise to create unrivalled memories for fans and band alike. A special and spectacular finish for those who Came, Raved and Loved!

ABOUT SWEDISH HOUSE MAFIA
The prominent DJ super group who officially set-up in 2008 consist of three house disc jockeys and producers, Axwell, Steve Angello, and Sebastian Ingrosso who are a breath-taking phenomenon internationally with a noteworthy fan following in the sub-continent too. The individualistic musical expertise and dynamic knowledge of the three coupled with their collective history is the key to the Mafia’s continued success. Swedish House Mafia is a monster of its own with a long standing tradition of keeping audience’s energy pulsating throughout the show with exclusive mixes and a "big-room house" bassline driven set. Unfortunately, the band broke a million hearts when they recently announced through their website about their dissolution and that their current tour would be their last together as‘Swedish House Mafia’. Swedish House Mafia’s arena-sized house party profiled by a massive laser-and- pyro-fuelled spectacle completed the revolution of the new musical movement with electronic dance music moving away from DJs spinning in urban clubs to spearheading the international concert-biz phenomenon. This summer the band bid a glorious farewell in UK with more than 65,000 attendees through a spectacular and one of their largest headline shows to date at Milton Keynes Bowl against a show-stopping backdrop of lasers, fireworks and flames.
