What started as a niche event has evolved into one of Dubai’s most anticipated weekends of the year, now a fixture on the Dubai Shopping Festival calendar and a must-attend moment for culture lovers across the region.
The 2024 edition set the bar sky-high, with GRAMMY® winner James Blake, Afrobeats powerhouse Tems, South Africa’s The Joy, and Atlanta rapper J.I.D lighting up the stage, alongside breakout names like Hev Abi and TUL8TE.
Over the years, the festival has welcomed icons from Wu-Tang Clan and Nas to Jorja Smith, Stormzy, Petra Collins and even basketball legend Scottie Pippen.

And if history is anything to go by, this year’s lineup is going to be just as unforgettable (and still top secret…for now).
Think exclusive brand drops, limited-edition collabs, next-wave fashion, and an expanded food line-up packed with cult favourite eateries.
There’ll be art shows, sports tournaments, panel talks, and more creative energy than you can soak up in one weekend.
With Visit Dubai as strategic partner and Dubai Design District (d3) as venue partner, the 2025 edition is shaping up to be the festival’s biggest and boldest yet.
