Bangalore Events in August and September: Exhibitions, Fairs and Festivals
Bengaluru’s cultural calendar is packed with reasons to step out this August and September. From thoughtful conversations around books and history to lively craft fairs, photography showcases and art exhibitions, the city is offering a wide mix of experiences for every kind of curious visitor. One of the highlights is “One Mother, Many Other Tongues” at the National Gallery of Modern Art. The cross-cultural exhibition looks at representations of motherhood across time, bringing together references that stretch from the Harappan civilisation to Botticelli’s Madonna. It is an invitation to reflect on how care, identity, family and femininity have been imagined in different places and periods. Beyond the gallery space, Bengaluru’s upcoming events include book discussions that open up new perspectives, markets celebrating handmade work, and photography festivals that capture everyday stories as well as larger social realities. These are the kinds of events that make an ordinary weekend feel more connected to the city’s creative pulse. Whether you are looking for a quiet afternoon with art, an engaging cultural conversation or a chance to discover local makers, there is plenty to explore. Keep an eye on Bengaluru’s event spaces this season and make time for something that feels new, inspiring and close to home.
