This accolade underscores the festival’s status as a powerhouse in the UAE’s dynamic live entertainment scene.
The inaugural UNTOLD Dubai festival shattered records, drawing over 185,000 music fans and setting a new benchmark for events in the region. The fully immersive experience was the first of its kind, hosting a phenomenal lineup of top international live acts across all genres, including EDM, house and techno DJs, K-pop, and Arabic artists. As the biggest music festival the city has ever seen, UNTOLD Dubai welcomed a dynamic audience of fans and over 100 artists.

The award show seeks to honor these outstanding achievements, positioning the Middle East as a driving force in the entertainment industry.
It’s no wonder that UNTOLD Dubai secured the title of Best Festival of the Year after its first edition illuminated the stage at Expo City Dubai and captured the hearts of music fans across the city.
