Ateez are no strangers to big stages. The eight-member group have earned a reputation as some of K-pop’s fiercest performers. With hits like “Bouncy” and “Guerrilla,” their high-octane shows and stadium-shaking fan chants promise a performance that will leave fans buzzing long after the night ends.

Red Velvet bring a different flavour. The five-member group are masters of versatility, moving seamlessly from velvety R&B-inspired tracks to bright pop bangers. From “Psycho” to “Red Flavor,” they are guaranteed to deliver style, sass and powerhouse vocals in equal measure.

Triple S are one of K-pop’s most innovative acts. Known for rotating members and fan-driven unit formations, their fresh sound and experimental style have made them one of the genre’s most talked-about new-generation idols. Fans in Abu Dhabi will get a glimpse of the future of K-pop with their performance.

South Korean boy band All(H)ours round out the first wave of performers. Since debuting last year, they have already turned heads with strong stage presence, sharp choreography and catchy songs. Dream Concert Abu Dhabi will give them one of their biggest international stages yet.

Fans can also look forward to more than music. The festival promises a full dive into Korean culture with traditional elements, fan experiences and a “Dream Park” to explore before the main performances. Think food, fashion, selfies and a sea of glowing light sticks.
