Things to Do in Hyderabad This Week
120 events matching right now across Hyderabad — mostly dance (28), workshop (21), nightlife (18), food (10). 12 are free.
The events below are the best things to do in Hyderabad this week, refreshed daily from listings across Hyderabad and Secunderabad: concerts, stand-up, plays, exhibitions, food festivals, workshops, heritage walks and family days out. If you plan by interest, start with the venues. Ravindra Bharathi at Lakdikapul stages Kuchipudi, music and Telugu theatre most evenings, often free. Lamakaan in Banjara Hills runs plays, screenings and talks from Tuesday to Sunday. Big comedy and music tours book Shilpakala Vedika in Madhapur, while club rooms in Gachibowli, Jubilee Hills and Film Nagar carry stand-up and open mics through the week. Trade fairs and consumer expos fill HITEX, and tech meetups gather at T-Hub. For daytime, Golconda Fort, Charminar, Chowmahalla Palace and the Salar Jung Museum cover heritage, and Shilparamam is the place for crafts. The calendar peaks from October to February, with Bathukamma and Dasara, Diwali, Numaish from 1 January and the Hyderabad Literary Festival in late January. Summer brings IPL nights at Uppal, and the monsoon brings Bonalu and Ganesh Chaturthi. The Salar Jung Museum and Chowmahalla Palace are closed on Fridays and the zoo on Mondays, so check before you set out.

Good to know
- Use the metro where it helps: the Blue Line serves HITEC City, Jubilee Hills and Uppal, the Red Line serves Nampally, Lakdikapul and Kukatpally.
- Gachibowli, Kondapur, Golconda and the Old City have no metro station close by, so budget for an auto or cab on the last stretch.
- The Salar Jung Museum and Chowmahalla Palace close on Fridays and Nehru Zoological Park on Mondays.
- Last metro trains leave the terminal stations at about 11 pm; plan a cab for late shows.
- Evening traffic in the IT corridor is heaviest from 5:30 to 8 pm. Leave early for shows in Madhapur and Gachibowli.
