The legendary grime artist will perform in Dubai for the first time since 2020… 

He’s a beloved personality both on and off stage, and this December, you’ll be able to catch Stormzy live in Dubai as he headlines Emirates Dubai 7s 2024.

The multi-award winning artist will close out the show at The Sevens Stadium on Sunday December 1, bringing the epic three-day festival to a close with all of his biggest hits. Expect to hear Stormzy bringing tracks including Big for your Boots, Vossi Bop and Shut Up to the Frequency on 8 Stage.

This is the first time that there will be major headliners on both Saturday and Sunday at the Emirates Dubai 7s. And with Monday December 2 a public holiday for Union Day (formerly UAE National Day), there’s no excuse not to stay out. The Saturday night headliner, as well as additional local and international support, will be announced in the coming weeks.

While the A-list star will headline a huge closing set after the HSBC SVNS final on Pitch 1, you’ll also be able to catch Stormzy off-stage, trading his microphone for a padel racket as he battles it out in a friendly mini-tournament. This friendly bout will take place on the padel courts, and is open to all ticket holders to watch on.

Stormzy is no stranger to the UAE, having last performed here at the Abu Dhabi Grand Prix after-race concerts, when he brought the noise to Yas Island in 2021. Before that, it was RedFest 2020 when Stormzy last headlined in Dubai.
