Bengaluru Weather in February

February weather

February feels warm and mostly dry in Bengaluru. Afternoons can get hot, while evenings are much cooler. The usual high is 32°C and the low is 15°C, with just one rainy day on average.

It's a good month for Lalbagh Botanical Garden, Cubbon Park and outdoor café stops around Indiranagar. Save long walks through exposed areas for the cooler parts of the day. If you're planning a day trip to Nandi Hills, expect the sun to feel stronger once you're out of the city.

Events and local days

The Bengaluru International Film Festival is often held around February, though its dates vary. If you enjoy films, it can add screenings and a lively local feel to your stay.

Maha Shivaratri may also fall in February, depending on the year. You'll notice more people visiting temples, including the Dodda Basavana Gudi (Bull Temple) in Basavanagudi. It's a religious holiday, so expect a different pace around temples rather than citywide closures.

Crowds and practical tips

February is still a popular time to visit, but it's warmer than December and January, Bengaluru's best months overall. You may find the city less busy than during the cooler peak, though weekends around major events can feel crowded. Prices can ease compared with those peak months, but vary by event and neighbourhood.

If you hate crowds, go to Lalbagh on a weekday. The Green Line stops at Lalbagh, so you can skip traffic for the garden visit. Travelling with kids? Plan the park for morning, then take a relaxed indoor break during the sticky afternoon. In March, heat and rain both rise, so February is a useful middle ground for sightseeing.
