There’s something about garage music that just makes you want to move. Whether it’s the bluesy feel of the guitar or the funky rhythms of the drums, garage music has a groove that is irresistible. For those not in the know, garage music got its start alongside Chicago house in the ‘80s before evolving into UK garage and speed garage in the ‘90s. It gave us legends like So Solid Crew, The Streets, and Craig David before newer genres like dubstep, grime, and UK funk took over. But the 2010s saw garage making a slick comeback, with fresh DJs and the pioneers of the genre keeping the sound alive.
Since its debut in the ’90s, Garage Nation has become a go-to for garage fans across the globe. A night dedicated solely to UK garage, the party brings together the legends and rising stars of garage, 2-step, and bassline in a celebration of the sound’s evolution. And now, it’s coming back to Dubai.
Following the success of their events in 2022, 2023, and in June 2024, Garage Nation is bringing even bigger vibes to the P7 car park at Media One Hotel. Circle Saturday, Sep. 28 on your calendar, because this night is all about throwing it back to the golden days of UK garage.
Expect a lineup of more than 10 pioneers of the genre, including Brit Award winners Harvey and Romeo from the legendary So Solid Crew, DJ Pied Piper of Masters of Ceremonies, Dan Da Man, MC Ultra, and more.
The event is guaranteed to sell out fast, so make sure you get your tickets here.
