Grammy-award-winning singer Bryan Adams is all set to bring his So Happy It Hurts world tour to the country, and preparations are already underway. In an exclusive scoop, we have got to know that the singer is planning to immerse himself in Indian culture during his visit. But that's not all - Bryan Adams is also taking a holistic approach to his tour. 

We've been told that the singer will be staying in places that offer in-built yoga experiences, allowing him to maintain his wellness routine while on the road. And the entire tour is said to be vegetarian-only.

A vegetarian-only tour

We have learnt from credible sources that special arrangements are being made for the singer.

“In line with his dedication to environmental responsibility, Bryan Adams’ India Tour will be a plastic-free and environmentally friendly event with maximum usage of biodegradable products,” says the source, adding, “Backstage catering will prioritise locally sourced, organic and homemade vegetarian food, eliminating the use of processed or packaged items”.

It is a well-known fact that Bryan is an advocate for a compassionate lifestyle and believes that plant-based eating is not only better for animals but also for the environment. There are times when he has credited his vegan diet for his energy.

For the India tour, he will be accompanied by his personal chef to ensure his vegan dietary needs are met.

“The promoters will be providing customised vegetarian menus in each city, featuring locally sourced, freshly prepared specialities. To maintain a strictly plant-based environment, no meat, fish, or poultry will be served or cooked backstage at any time,” shares the insider.

The Summer Of ‘69 hitmaker is expected to arrive in India a few days prior to the tour for a “comprehensive technical rehearsal”.

“He will be accompanied by a dedicated team of 50 crew members. A charter plane will be used solely for the transportation of his equipment which weighs more than 10,000 kgs,” shares the source, adding that beyond the music, the Canadian singer is looking forward to immersing himself in “Indian culture and heritage”.

“A private tour guide will accompany him to explore the cities he visits, providing insights into the country's rich heritage and traditions. He will also be provided accommodation at hotels with in-house yoga and naturopathy practices and sufficient natural habitat surrounding his rooms,” shares the insider.
