Stormzy is Bringing His Grime Hits to Dubai This December

On Dec. 1

British grime heavyweight Stormzy is set to light up the stage at the Emirates Dubai 7s on Sunday, Dec. 1. Bringing his signature sound straight from the streets of London to the Sevens Stadium, Stormzy will deliver a performance packed with hits like Big for Your BootsShut Up, and the crowd favorite, Vossi Bop. If you’re a fan of grime, this is one show you won’t want to miss.

The buzz around Stormzy’s headlining gig has been building for weeks, especially after the cryptic teasers from Dubai 7s sent fans into a frenzy. But here’s a fun twist: before he takes the stage, Stormzy will also be joining a mini padel tournament on Saturday, Nov. 30—giving fans a chance to see him in action off the stage too.

Stormzy’s rise to global fame is nothing short of impressive. With three chart-topping albums—Gang Signs & Prayer, Heavy is the Head, and This Is What I Mean—he’s made his mark not just on grime, but on music as a whole. Twice shortlisted for the prestigious Mercury Prize, his powerful lyrics, bold social commentary, and stage presence have cemented him as an icon beyond the UK.

With over 5,000 athletes competing in sports like rugby, padel, netball, and cricket, the weekend of Nov. 29 to Dec. 2 is packed with nonstop action. And when it comes to entertainment, Stormzy joins a list of previous headliners like Kylie Minogue, Becky Hill, and Craig David.

If you’re ready for a weekend of sport, music, and unforgettable vibes, tickets start at AED 425 for Saturday and Sunday, with weekend passes going for AED 550. Friday’s entry is free, and kids under four get in free too, while those aged 4-9 can join for AED 40.
