Abu Dhabi was gearing up to celebrate hip-hop, R&B and EDM in a big way this April, but BRED Abu Dhabi has now been postponed until further notice due to the UAE’s current circumstances. No new dates have been confirmed yet.
The festival was originally set to take place from April 22nd to April 26th at Yas Marina Circuit, bringing together music, streetwear, art and food in one space.
Since launching in 2023, BRED Abu Dhabi has grown into more than just an event. It has become a platform for youth culture and Arab creativity, championing self-expression and community across the region.
Previous editions have featured global names like Metro Boomin, Nas and Offset, alongside a strong lineup of regional talent, helping position the festival as a key moment in the Middle East’s cultural calendar.
The 2026 edition was expected to include artists such as Gunna, Nemzzz and Bryson Tiller, with a diverse mix of hip-hop, R&B and contemporary sounds.
At this stage, organisers have not announced a new date. Ticket holders and fans are advised to stay tuned to official channels for further updates.
What was previously planned:
Location: Yas Marina Circuit, Abu Dhabi
Dates: April 22nd–26th, 2026 (postponed)
Tickets: 5-Day Festival Passes from Dhs695
