HUNTERHOOD is a street culture festival by Royal Enfield celebrating urban life, music, art and action sports (skateboarding, BMX) centered around its Hunter 350 motorcycle. The festival brings together creators, artists, riders and brands for live performances, workshops, skating/BMX jams and showcasing local culture in cities like Delhi, Mumbai and Shillong, creating a vibrant, youth-focused experience. 

Some cities don’t just listen to music - they live it. This February, HunterHood arrives in Shillong, a city where sound, street culture and community have always shaped everyday life.

Built around Royal Enfield’s Hunter 350, HunterHood is a platform for hustlers - a coming together of music, art, skateboarding, BMX and the raw energy of the streets. After powerful editions in Delhi, Mumbai and Chennai, the movement now heads to the Northeast for a music-led celebration rooted in Shillong’s cultural pulse.

Taking over Polo Ground on February 7 from 4 pm onwards, HunterHood Shillong brings together a lineup of compelling voices including Raja Kumari, Reble, DJ Knack, Smokey the Poet, Gaulley Bhai, Sawajam Soundsystem, Trance Effect, Eshna Goenka, Mama Tips, Small Axe and more, alongside local collectives, workshops, graffiti, flea market experiences and food.

HunterHood to hit Shillong and carry the movement forward in a city that lives and breathes sound, style and pure hustle.
