Martin Garrix announced as first UNTOLD Dubai 2025 headliner
One of the world's most popular DJs is coming back to Dubai to headline the huge UNTOLD Dubai 2025 music festival.
Dutch DJ and producer Martin Garrix is bringing his decks to the Dubai Parks and Resorts-based festival this November.
The festival was a massive success back in 2024, with more than 185,000 music fans attending across the weekend.
And, with Martin Garrix being the first name on the line-up, it looks set to be one of the biggest parties of the year.
Martin Garrix is no stranger to Dubai, having performed twice at Atlantis The Palm last year, but now fans will be able to enjoy him and at least 100 other artists between Thursday November 6 and Sunday November 9.

The Dutch star has topped the charts globally with several collaborations including In the Name of Love feat. Bebe Rexha, Scared to Be Lonely feat. Dua Lipa and There for You feat. Troye Sivan.
The man from Amstelveen rose to international fame with his 2013 hit Animals, which has been played more than 1.8 billion times on YouTube.
Martin Garrix has been named the top DJ in the world by readers of the prestigious DJ Mag five times, with the most recent ranking placing him at number one.
If previous appearances are anything to go by, you can expect a high-octane show featuring lasers and moving light fixtures.
In 2024, UNTOLD was a great mix of stars from the worlds of dance music, pop and K-pop, with the likes of Armin van Buuren, Ellie Goulding and PSY headlining last year.
We can expect more big names to be added to the line-up in the coming months. For this year's festival, fans were asked to provide artists and genres that they'd like to see perform in Dubai, so expect some of your favourites to be involved.
Tickets start from Dhs420 for a four-day pass, with single-day options likely to be released at a later date.
Bundles include theme park passes, friendship packs, VIP tickets and accommodations.
From Dhs420 (four-day pass). Thu Nov 6 – Sun Nov 9. Dubai Parks and Resorts.
