With less than a month to go for Untold Dubai, the excitement in the emirate is palpable as residents gear up for the four-day music festival. Joining its incredible lineup is Dutch DJ Tiesto, often dubbed the “Godfather of EDM”. While the date and time of Tiesto’s set are yet to be announced, festivalgoers can expect it to be a night to remember, as the DJ spins some of his top tracks such as ‘Run Free’, ‘The Business’,  and ’10:35′, which the artist created with singer Tate McRae, especially for Dubai. Tiesto also has a strong connection to the region, having previously performed at the after-race concert of the 2023 F1 Abu Dhabi Grand Prix, and at MDL Beast Soundstorm 2023 in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia.

Mahmut Orhan is the second artist to be revealed in the recent announcement. The Turkish DJ is renowned for his viral instrumental track ‘Age of Emotions’, and has previously taken the stage at the Exit Festival in Serbia and Untold Romania. Other musicians who have already been announced in the lineup for Dubai’s first-ever Untold festival include DJs Major Lazer, Hardwell, Don Diablo, and Armin Van Buuren, as well as pop and hip-hop artists Ellie Goulding, Bebe Rexha, and G-Eazy, and Korean music sensation PSY. That’s not all, as Untold Dubai promises more than 100 artists, a majority of which are yet to be revealed.

Untold Dubai is set to take place from Thursday, February 15 to Sunday, February 18, at Expo City, with tickets starting at AED 300. The festival has been highly anticipated ever since veteran Dutch DJ Armin van Buuren performed a 40-minute set on the Burj Khalifa to announce and promote Untold Dubai.
