Hot & Not in Hollywood

Dubai 2025, the city is preparing to host a four-day festival of EDM, techno, and immersive performance art from November 6 to 9 at Dubai Parks™ and Resorts, where sound becomes sensation and skyline stages pulse with global energy.

This won’t just be a venue. It will transform into a rhythm-soaked universe where techno beats collide with theme park thrills, and shimmering visuals echo across the desert sky.

What’s driving this seismic energy? The lineup, for starters.

Global EDM Powerhouses Set to Ignite UNTOLD Dubai 2025

The first wave of artists is already turning heads. Dutch EDM titan Martin Garrix will make his UNTOLD Dubai debut, bringing his explosive energy and global hits like Animals and Scared to Be Lonely to the desert stage. His inclusion was confirmed by EDMNomad, which also revealed the return of trance legend Armin van Buuren, fresh off his 2024 performance that featured a custom drone and light show.

Completing the power trio is Steve Aoki, whose theatrical sets and cake-throwing antics are as iconic as his music. His appearance was also highlighted by EDM House Network, noting that this marks his first UNTOLD Dubai performance.

The Festival Experience

UNTOLD isn’t just about music. It’s a full-blown immersive playground. With five massive stages and over 250 hours of music, the lineup spans EDM, techno, afrobeats, Arabic pop, and Bollywood bangers. The venue itself is a game-changer: festivalgoers can bounce between stages and theme parks like MOTIONGATE™ Dubai, LEGOLAND®, and Real Madrid World, all connected by the walkable hub of Riverland™ Dubai, as detailed by Gulf Buzz.

Whether you caught the first wave of hype in Gulf Buzz or spotted teaser reels drifting across your feed, one thing’s clear: the buzz isn’t accidental. UNTOLD Dubai 2025 is deliberately engineered to eclipse every expectation, and the lineup is its heartbeat. With international heavyweights and EDM royalty anchoring four unforgettable days, this isn’t just sound. It’s scale. The lineup drives the pulse. Access determines the experience..

Tickets and VIP Perks

Ticket options cater to every kind of fan. General admission starts at AED 475, while VIP passes begin at AED 1,200, with flexible payment plans available. For the full experience, festival + hotel bundles include stays at Lapita Dubai Parks and Resorts and LEGOLAND Hotel, with packages outlined on the official UNTOLD Dubai site.

Every pass unlocks more than entry. It opens a gateway to a festival experience designed to scale globally. With packages tailored to every tier of access, fans aren’t just choosing proximity to the stage. They’re choosing how deeply they dive into the spectacle. And with stakes this high, UNTOLD Dubai’s impact is already echoing far beyond ticket lines.

Why It Matters

UNTOLD Dubai’s 2024 debut drew over 185,000 attendees from more than 160 countries, earning it the title of Best Festival – Middle East. Organizers now aim to surpass that with a forecast of 250,000 guests in 2025. Co-founder Edy Chereji told Time Out Dubai that the team is “pushing the boundaries of live entertainment” and crafting moments that will be remembered for a lifetime.

That kind of global turnout isn’t just a statistic. It’s a signal. UNTOLD Dubai has tapped into something visceral, drawing thousands not just for spectacle, but for shared experience. And as 2025 approaches, anticipation builds—not just for the scale, but for the spark that stays.

It’s a full-body experience that fuses music, movement, and memory. With headliners like Martin Garrix, Armin van Buuren, and Steve Aoki already confirmed by EDMNomad, the energy is set to be electric.

But it’s not just about the music. The venue, Dubai Parks™ and Resorts, offers a playground of possibilities. Between sets, you can wander through MOTIONGATE™ Dubai, grab bites in Riverland™, or recharge at LEGOLAND® Hotel. As Time Out Dubai notes, the festival’s immersive layout is designed to keep you moving, exploring, and connecting.
