7 Things To Do In Bangalore This Raksha Bandhan 2025
Things You Can Do This Raksha Bandhan With Your Sibling
Go For A Run. No Seriously. Go For It
If you and your sibling are the outdoorsy type and enjoy being competitive, then Bangalore is home to plenty of running clubs. Some run in Indiranagar, some in Cubbon Park, and some just about anywhere; the point is that the running community is strong, and there's nothing like bonding with like-minded people, especially your sibling. If you play it right, you might even impress your sibling so much that they might tell you that you did a good job. How often do we hear that?

Take Them Shopping Because No More Hand Me Downs
Depending on who is the eldest, chances are either of you is using hand-me-downs from your sibling, cause that is a rite of passage. You can bully them or let yourself get bullied into buying them some new clothes and accessories, so they or you can go tell people, "Master gave Dobby new clothes. Dobby is freeee". Because let's face it, drama is necessary. To do a proper shopping spree, you can head to Indiranagar for its wide range of options or to one of these 13 best malls in Bangalore.
Must Visit Stores In Indiranagar: Pinklay, The Shop, Nicobar, Nykaa Fashion, Roshni Boutique, Bhaane, VegNonVeg, Superkicks, Ellementary, and Freedom Tree
Teamwork Makes The Dreamwork
Mystery rooms and escape rooms are the perfect way to test that famed sibling teamwork. From Mystery Rooms Bengaluru to The Amazing Escape, you can pick from these spots in town to play an hour of detective and relive those childhood days when you and your sibling used to play detective.
A Farm To Table Experiential Lunch
For siblings who love eating, the chef's table experience at Farmlore is something to look forward to. There's a 5-course and 10-course tasting menu that you can partake in, made using ingredients sourced from their farm, including milk from their cows. While we can't comment on exactly what kind of dishes will be served, we recommend keeping an open mind about the entire experience. After you've had your lunch, you can walk around the farm or have a conversation with the chefs.

Being All Artsy In The City
MAP—Museum of Art & Photography is the place to be these days, apart from the good old NGMA and you guys can head here to just admire art. Plus, remind your siblings (especially the younger ones) of how the artwork they did in the first grade is worthy of being hung here. Nothing like reminding your siblings about all the lame things they did as a kid, right? There's also the Venkatappa Art Gallery that's close by and needs a visit too.

A Day Of Holistic Bonding
We're fans of sound healing and if you and your siblings need that much-needed time out, nothing like booking a sound healing session with JustBe. The whole experience is so calming thanks to the use of Tibetan singing bowls, Meridian bowls, and gongs. Maybe you and your sibling will get out of the session like the best of friends, just like how your mother has been praying for all her life. Alternatively, you can also check your sibling into one of these spas in Bangalore.
Boogity, Boogity, Boogity, Let's Go Racing
If you and your sibling have a long-standing rivalry over who's the better sibling, nothing like settling the debate on the race track. Head to Torq3 to race a couple of go-kart cars and have a jolly good time burning rubber. And once that's done, you can head to the arcade section to play bowling, bumper cars, and of course, arcade games. You know, like the good old days?
