Bengaluru city police on Friday (May 29, 2026) issued an advisory urging the public to avoid bursting crackers, holding road celebrations, creating disturbances or engaging in fights after the IPL 2026 final on May 31.

It said that as Royal Challengers Bengaluru (RCB) have reached the final of the TATA IPL 2026 cricket tournament, the public has been instructed to strictly follow safety guidelines.

Once the final result is announced, the public should not engage in any kind of celebrations in public places, the police said, adding that maintaining law and order, public peace, and safety is the responsibility of every citizen.

According to the advisory, LED walls facing roads shall not be installed without prior permission from the concerned authorities, and existing LED walls should not telecast the match.

Screens must not be installed outside malls, pubs, or other establishments in a manner that makes them visible to the public for viewing the final.

Bursting crackers and using dangerous materials is prohibited. Peace and discipline must be maintained in crowded areas, the advisory stated.

Police urged people to strictly follow instructions and guidance issued by traffic officials.

Bike rallies, over-speeding, stunts, misuse of horns, and road blockages have been prohibited, the police said.

People are advised not to consume alcohol in public places or create disturbances, engage in fights, or behave indecently.

The police also warned the public against sharing provocative posts, hateful messages, or rumours on social media.

“Under the pretext of the match result, fans of other teams should not be provoked, insulted, or engaged in behaviour that may lead to fights,” the advisory stated.

The final will be held at the Narendra Modi Stadium in Ahmedabad, which can accommodate more than 1,30,000 spectators.

The advisory comes in the backdrop of a stampede in June 2025 near the Chinnaswamy Stadium in Bengaluru that left 11 people dead and 33 injured during RCB victory celebrations.
