The breezes off the Arabian Sea feel a little cooler as the days wind on, but in Mumbai, the vibes are anything but chilly. If you’ve seen the Gateway of India for the umpteenth time with visiting relatives, consider taking them to the Royal Bombay Yacht Club for a new perspective. Nature lovers should rejoice that the “Maximum City” is getting a new elevated walkway in the picturesque Malabar Hills area to wander in. If that project feels far away from completion, consider visiting these top places in India for leopard sightings instead.

Here are the top weekend events in Mumbai from November 30 to December 1, 2024.
