The Third Edition of UNTOLD Dubai Will Take Place Between November 5–8, 2026, Again at Dubai Parks™ & Resorts
For four unforgettable days and nights, Dubai Parks™ & Resorts, one of the city’s most vibrant entertainment destinations, was transformed into the magical realm of the largest music festival in the Middle East – UNTOLD Dubai.
Over 190,000 music fans experienced a unique journey alongside more than 100 international artists, six breathtaking stages, and massive production. The atmosphere was electric — full of energy, color, and sound — in an event organized in strategic partnership with the Dubai Department of Economy and Tourism.
Following the festival’s impressive success and the enthusiastic response from fans, organizers have already announced that UNTOLD Dubai will return from November 5 to 8, 2026, once again at Dubai Parks™ & Resorts.
Four Days of Music, Magic, and Emotion
The festival kicked off in spectacular fashion, blending sound, light, and energy into a powerful opening. The main stage hosted Sugababes, Armin van Buuren, WizTheMc, Tujamo, Luciano, and Hot Since 82, all delivering unforgettable performances.
Sugababes brought 2000s nostalgia to UNTOLD Dubai for the first time, while Armin van Buuren electrified the audience with his signature hits and gave fans an exclusive preview of his upcoming album.
Day two continued the momentum with an impressive lineup featuring Nora Fatehi, YUNGBLUD, Axwell, and Steve Aoki.
For YUNGBLUD, it was a special moment — his Middle East debut, coinciding with the news of three Grammy nominations. The British artist captivated the crowd with his raw rockstar energy, while Nora Fatehi stunned audiences with a dynamic performance full of dance and spectacular visual effects.
On the Zamna Stage, fans were treated to electrifying sets from Eric Prydz, Toto Chiavetta, Zamna Soundsystem, Julian Prince, and Joris Voorn.
Saturday became a landmark day for UNTOLD Dubai, featuring unforgettable performances from Swae Lee, Martin Garrix, Cancelled Music, and KSHMR.
Martin Garrix even premiered new tracks during his set and later joined Gordo on the Zamna Stage, keeping the energy at a fever pitch.
Swae Lee described his UNTOLD Dubai experience as “epic,” highlighting the special bond he felt with the crowd.
The festival closed on Sunday with a spectacular debut performance by J Balvin, who turned the main stage into a massive reggaeton party. The Colombian superstar brought Daecolm on stage for a live rendition of their global hit “I Adore You” by Hugel. Among the crowd of excited fans was Jason Derulo, who enjoyed the show from the audience.
Also performing on the main stage were Saweetie, Meduza, Alan Walker, and Nervo, while Mrak (half of Tale of Us) delivered a mesmerizing closing set on the Zamna Stage.
Record Numbers and World-Class Production
The festival covered an area of over 267,000 square meters — the equivalent of five major events combined.
The main stage was a true architectural masterpiece: 120 meters wide and 28 meters tall, roughly the size of a football field, featuring futuristic design and a sound system powerful enough to make the ground vibrate.
