Garage Nation is the epic night dedicated to non-stop UK garage classics, and it returns to Dubai in September
Ravers! This one is for you. Garage Nation is returning to Dubai this September for another unforgettable rave. The UK’s biggest garage band will be performing at Iris, Meydan, on September 5.
Garage Nation Dubai have been raving in Dubai for the past three years, and each time they have drawn in the crowds, so it’s one not to miss.
Don’t want to stay out late? Don’t worry, it’s a daytime rave taking place from 2pm to 9pm. And even better news? It takes place on a public holiday, so you don’t have to put in that annual leave request.
Two giants are set to headline the scene: Artful Dodger, the chart-topping pioneers behind some of the UK’s most iconic garage anthems, such as Re-wind and Please Don’t Turn Me On, and Scott Garcia, the man responsible for the timeless It’s a London Thing.
To keep the energy sky-high all afternoon, award-winning MC CKP also known as The Mayor, will be part of the headlining crew.
