DUBAI, September 1, 2024

The ultimate celebration of sport, music, and entertainment, the Emirates Dubai 7s, returns in 2024 with its largest line-up yet. This three-day extravaganza promises an unparalleled experience with world-class international athletes, A-list headliners, and top-notch hospitality, as highlighted in a recent announcement.
 
This year's festival, themed as the ‘weekend of the year,’ will take place just before the UAE National Day public holiday, from Friday, November 29 to Sunday, December 1, at the Sevens Stadium in Dubai.
 
Tickets and Packages Now Available
Tickets for the Emirates Dubai 7s are now available on the official website. Attendees can choose from a variety of packages, including day passes, full weekend passes, and exclusive all-inclusive hospitality packages that grant access to the brand-new Sunroom for a VIP festival experience. Standard tickets are priced at AED 425, with full weekend passes available for AED 550. Additionally, reserved seating and hospitality packages can be purchased directly through the website.
 
A Global Sports and Entertainment Phenomenon
Set to draw over 80,000 attendees from the UAE and around the world, the Emirates Dubai 7s is the first leg of the HSBC SVNS 2024-2025 series, cementing its status as a landmark event in the UAE's annual calendar. Continuing its tradition of excellence, the festival will feature participation from 128 countries across five sports, including rugby 7s, netball, cricket, fitness, and padel tennis. Last year's edition saw over 6,000 participants and 560 teams from 32 countries.
 
Exciting Sports Competitions and More
Festival-goers can anticipate thrilling sports action, including the ever-growing cricket tournament presented by Dulsco, which attracts amateur teams from across the UAE and the Middle East. The netball tournament, sponsored by Nakheel Community Management, will also take center stage in the newly renovated 4-court netball zone, offering ample entertainment for players and fans alike. The third edition of the fitness competition, WODON3, will showcase mixed teams competing in strength and fitness challenges, while the popular padel tennis tournament, Rebound, invites enthusiasts to compete on custom-built courts.
 
A Star-Studded Line-Up and Family Fun
Beyond the sports, this year's Emirates Dubai 7s promises an incredible line-up of global and local A-list performers across three iconic stages: Rugby Rocks, Beats on 2, and Frequency on 8. Although the full 2024 line-up is yet to be announced, past festivals have featured stars like Kylie Minogue, Craig David, Artful Dodger, and Becky Hill. Families are also in for a treat, with free entry for children under four and the largest kids' zone to date, filled with festival-themed activities. Numerous food and beverage outlets, including Pret a Manger and Costa, will also be available, with more options to be announced soon.
