NODWIN Gaming has extended its partnership with District by Zomato as the exclusive ticketing partner for Comic Con India, NH7 Weekender, and DreamHack India for the second consecutive year.
All three properties — spanning pop culture, music, cosplay, esports and gaming — are part of NODWIN’s growing IP portfolio. District by Zomato will continue to provide booking and ticketing access through its platform.
Comic Con India is expanding to 11 cities this year, with four new locations added. Insights from the District platform indicate growing demand for pop culture experiences across cities. NH7 Weekender remains one of the country’s longest-running music festivals, and DreamHack India — in its sixth edition — continues as the Indian leg of the global gaming festival.
A recent FICCI report (Shape the future: The revolution in Indian Media and Entertainment) projects that revenues from organised live events are expected to grow at an 18% CAGR to reach ₹167 billion by 2027. 67% of marketers surveyed in 2024 expect to increase their events and activations spends in 2025 and 2026, with non-metro markets emerging as growth drivers.
The partnership continues to support NODWIN Gaming’s expansion into large-scale, ticketed youth events and fan-focused IPs.
“Ticketing is the final and most crucial step in connecting fans to our events, and our ongoing partnership with District by Zomato reflects the strong mutual trust we’ve built over time,” said Akshat Rathee, Co-founder and MD, NODWIN Gaming. “Their commitment to delivering a seamless experience aligns perfectly with our goal of making India’s biggest cultural events accessible and enjoyable from the very first click.”
A District by Zomato spokesperson added, “At District, we believe in curating a seamless experience for discovering and accessing cultural celebrations. We’re excited to continue our collaboration with NODWIN Gaming, known for producing culturally engaging IPs, to bring these experiences to an even wider audience nationwide.”
