Dubai is no stranger to spectacle, but few events this 2025 match the sheer madness, color, and controlled chaos of an elrow rave. On Saturday, May 17, 2025, the world’s most immersive party brand returns for its third Dubai edition, bringing with it the Rowlympic Games—a carnival of music, performance, and larger-than-life energy set to unfold at Expo City Dubai, Jubilee Park.
Elrow Dubai is more than a rave; it’s a theatrical experience, a fever dream of sound and movement where reality bends, confetti rains down in never-ending waves, and the dancefloor becomes a playground of unfiltered joy that remains a core memory to partygoers through to 2025. With its unique fusion of electronic music, interactive performances, and mind-bending visual storytelling, it has cemented itself as one of the most exhilarating events on the global nightlife circuit.
Marking its third edition on May 17, 2025, Dubai gets another dose of the elrow rave madness. And this time, it’s going bigger than ever. Tickets are now on sale from AED 250 via Platinumlist.
What to Expect at the Elrow Rowlympic Games in Dubai
Elrow doesn’t just throw a party—it builds an entire universe, like the one it’s curating at [UNVRS] Ibiza. This year’s Rowlympic Games theme is a playful, tongue-in-cheek take on the spirit of competition, but with the elrow twist: expect a surreal mash-up of sporting legends, absurd mascots, and dancefloor warriors all competing for one thing—pure, unfiltered fun.
At Expo City Dubai, Jubilee Park, the night will come alive with:
- A lineup of world-class DJs—elrow’s past editions have seen legends behind the decks. While we don’t have the headliners yet, we’re optimistic that this year promises nothing less than top-tier talent.
- Mind-blowing production—a signature blend of larger-than-life inflatables, immersive stage designs, and psychedelic visuals that turn the venue into an alternate reality.
- Non-stop theatrical performances—costumed dancers, wild characters, and an endless stream of unexpected surprises weaving through the crowd.
- The ultimate confetti explosion—because no elrow party is complete without it.
Elrow has redefined dance music culture by making every event an interactive playground, and the Rowlympic Games will push those boundaries even further. Whether you’re stepping onto the dancefloor as a spectator or competitor, there’s only one rule: go all in.
Cue the Confetti: A Forward Push for Dubai’s Rave Scene
Dubai’s dance music scene has evolved rapidly, and elrow has played a major role in shaping its transformation. With unmatched production and theatrical performances, it has redefined festival experiences in the UAE. “We are very excited to bring elrow back to Dubai for a third year!” shares Juan Arnau Jr., CEO, elrow. “Dubai has become a very special place for us. The crowd in the UAE embraces everything that makes elrow special.”
Elrow’s expansion in Dubai has been fueled by enthusiastic fans and strong partnerships. “Our passion, creativity, and desire to bring the biggest, most colorful parties thrive here,” Arnau adds. The support from partners has also pushed elrow to new heights. “This, and our fantastic partners, have allowed us to grow and create experiences never seen before in the Middle East!”
Arnau promises a bigger, wilder show this year. “We look forward to May 17th and putting on our biggest show yet!”
The UAE’s electronic music scene has exploded, bringing massive festivals and legendary artists to the region. This shift is reshaping Dubai’s nightlife. “When we started this journey two years ago, we never realized how much of an impact elrow would have,” says Shiraz Baziko of Dubai Dance District. “This festival has become a tentpole event in Dubai’s dance music calendar. It has changed the landscape of dance music here.”
Baziko sees this year’s event as a game-changer. “This is year three, and we are going bigger—more acts, a brand-new venue, and even more confetti!”

One thing is certain—elrow Dubai 2025 will be an epic rave. If the past two years have proven anything, it’s that Dubai’s electronic music crowd knows exactly what elrow brings to the table. And once the doors open to Expo City Dubai, Jubilee Park, every inch of space will be filled with wild costumes, pulsating beats, and pure, unrelenting energy. For those who’ve never experienced elrow before—this is your moment. And for those returning—you already know what’s about to go down.
