Tips before you go

ITO (Violet Line) and Indraprastha (Blue Line) are each about a kilometre away, roughly 15 minutes on foot. An e-rickshaw saves the walk in summer.
The complex is large and has several halls, so check whether your event is in the main arena, the velodrome or the KD Jadhav Indoor Hall.
The ITO junction and Ring Road are among Delhi's busiest stretches at rush hour. Leave extra time for evening events.
Carry ID and keep bags small, because big sporting and entertainment events here run security checks at the gates.
