Bengaluru, October 8th, 2025 – Get ready to step into a time machine! The Forum South BLR Fest is back for its third edition with an electrifying “Back to the Future” theme. Headlining this year’s city-wide celebration is the unveiling of a record-breaking installation: the world’s largest 40-foot walk-through gramophone.
This towering, intricate structure is more than just décor; it’s an immersive, retro-futuristic wonderland where nostalgia and imagination blend seamlessly. Built over 15 days by a team of 20 skilled artisans, the gramophone required 3,500 man-hours of focused craftsmanship. It’s a vibrant tribute to the cultural revolutions of the ’70s, ’80s, and ’90s, designed to evoke memories of mixtapes, family gatherings, and the timeless power of music.
“Forum South Bengaluru has always been at the forefront of curating immersive experiences,” says Muhammad Ali, CEO, Forum Malls, Prestige Group. “With the world’s largest 40 ft gramophone, we are celebrating both the nostalgia of the past and the imagination of the future, making this year’s fest truly unforgettable.”
