UNTOLD Dubai Drops First Artist Announcement for Debut Event

UNTOLD Dubai 2024 will feature sets by artists like Armin van Buuren, Hardwell, and Paul Kalkbrenner.

UNTOLD Festival‘s first foray into the Middle East, UNTOLD Dubai, is slated for February 15 – 18, 2024 at Expo City Dubai. With three months to go before the debut of the event, organizers have shared the first wave of artists appearing on the lineup of the four-day gathering.

Armin van Buuren, Hardwell, Don Diablo, and Timmy Trumpet give the lineup announcement a heaping helping of mainstage flair. Paul Kalkbrenner adds incentive for lovers of house and techno, and Major Lazer promises dancehall and adjacent sounds. Outside of the dance music spectrum are headliners G-Eazy and Bebe Rexha, who notably worked together on the 2015 single “Me, Myself & I.”

Touting itself as “Dubai’s first mega festival,” UNTOLD Dubai’s full lineup will include over 100 artists. It is expected to attract more than 70,000 daily attendees.

UNTOLD Festival’s flagship event is considered the largest electronic music festival in Romania. Its debut edition in 2015 drew over 240,000 revelers and featured DJ sets by the likes of Duke Dumont, Fedde Le Grand, Sunnery James & Ryan Marciano, and John Digweed.

The event has nearly doubled in size, with UNTOLD Festival 2023 drawing nearly 420,000 attendees across four days. Headliners for this year’s edition, which once again took place at Cluj Arena, included Martin Garrix, David Guetta, Steve Aoki, and Eric Prydz. Also on the bill were mainstream acts like Imagine Dragons and Ava Max.

UNTOLD announced the debut of its 2024 Dubai event back in June. To help build anticipation around the event, Armin van Buuren played a world record-setting DJ set atop the Burj Khalifa, the tallest building in the world.

“Hosting events like UNTOLD at Expo City Dubai is the perfect way to demonstrate the city’s capability to host mega-events, further reinforcing its position as an international events hub in line with the ambition of our visionary leadership to make Dubai the best city in the world to visit, live and work in,” said Dubai Festivals and Retail Establishment CEO Ahmed Al Khaja.

GA Passes to UNTOLD Dubai start at $197 USD, but prices will increase after November 15. Purchase tickets and find additional information on the UNTOLD Dubai website.
