Look Inside Ushuaïa's Dazzling Dubai Debut With Calvin Harris

A new era of Ushuaïa unfolded in Dubai over the weekend after the fabled Ibiza nightlife institution launched its ambitious event series, Dubai Harbour Experience.

Ushering in the arrival of Ushuaïa in the glitzy UAE capital, the inaugural event took place October 26th and featured a headlining performance by Calvin Harris, who DJed under the UAE capital's gleaming skyline. The chart-topping dance music superstar, a fixture of the brand's flagship venue on the White Isle, called the launch "amazing."

Ushuaïa's dazzling new stage stands at a lofty 25 meters high and 50 meters wide, or five times the size of its Ibiza counterpart, according to a press release shared with EDM.com. Over 15,000 people were in attendance for its unveiling at the 10-hour, open-air party.

The Ushuaïa Dubai Harbour Experience is a joint venture between The Night League, the award winning nightlife and entertainment company behind Ushuaïa and Hï Ibiza, and Addmind Hospitality's Studio A, a leading Dubai hospitality group. They're now poised to flesh out the Dubai Harbour Experience with a series of events throughout winter 2024 and spring 2025.

Elsewhere in Dubai, the city's nightlife sector is flourishing, fueled by a spate of high-profile acquisitions and venue openings. The proprietors of the iconic Tomorrowland festival in 2022 opened a palatial desert resort, Terra Solis, which is billed as "a unique glamping experience in the Arabian Dunes." A year later, the Dubai-based hospitality titan FIVE acquired Pacha Group, one of Ibiza's most illustrious nightlife institutions, in a deal valued at $330 million.

The International Music Summit, one of the electronic music industry's most influential global conferences, is also expanding to Dubai. The gathering is annually in Ibiza but will now head to the Dubai's W Hotel - Mina Seyahi in November.
