Mark your calendars for the 21st of October because The Mayyas will be heading to Dubai for the *very* first time as a part of RELM FEST.
The one-of-a-kind music festival RELM FEST at The Pointe hosted by Nakheel is about to be the event of the month. Regional artists will be performing all weekend from 21-23rd October, 6-11 pm, which is followed by after parties.
In celebration marking the second anniversary of The Palm Fountain, this waterfront destination will be hosting non-stop music, artists, and impressive headliners performing live.
Who are the festival headliners and performers?
Recognizing Emerging Local Musicians (RELM)’s initiative is to support and help grow the careers of emerging talent in the region. The artists get a big platform to showcase their talent, and we can’t wait to hear some of their new music (!!)
Nakheel is even hosting the winner of this year’s America’s Got Talent Lebanese dance troupe, The Mayyas. The all-female dance group rightfully took over our feeds with their amazing synchronised moves, and now you can check them out live yourself. You can expect two 5-minute routines on the East and West promenades that’ll also be projected on screens.
The Mayyas will be performing on the Palm Jumeirah as a part of celebrating Arabic youth and culture. In addition, Noel Kharman, Lea Makhoul, Abri, Sandra Sahi, and Nagham Debal are the 5 artists who will be supported by DJs like DJ Rodge, Deian, Sam Farsio, Walashi, Somalie, along with Indie bands and regional musicians like As Per Casper, The Boxtones, and many more.
This event will showcase 5 new fountain shows each of which is choreographed to feature each musician. RELM FEST’s headline artists will also perform their new releases, which will have a backdrop of their unique fountain show (can you imagine the crazy visuals once The Mayyas perform?!)
What you need to know about transportation and parking…
