Dubai’s iconic Pacha ICONS series is back for an exhilarating first quarter of 2026 with an extraordinary lineup of world-renowned DJs set to play at the city’s premier beachfront destination, Playa Pacha at FIVE LUXE JBR. Promising unforgettable nights of music, energy, and celebration, Pacha ICONS continues to deliver the signature Ibizan party spirit that has made it a must-visit experience for all music lovers.

Pacha ICONS is a multi-genre, open-air musical celebration, bringing the world’s biggest talent to Dubai’s stunning beachfront venue, Playa Pacha. With three glistening pools, a pristine beach and one of the largest LED screens in the region projecting dynamic visuals, each event is designed to create an immersive, high-energy experience that captures the magic of Ibiza right on the Dubai coastline.

The season kicks off in January with two consecutive nights from global sensations and Australian melodic masters RÜFÜS DU SOL, the first on 23 January alongside multidisciplinary trio Avangart Tabldot and then with Copenhagen’s ‘Dope Dance’ creators Tripolism on 24 January. That is followed by a powerhouse performance from house music king and Diynamic label head Solomun on 31 January.

On 13 February, the internationally celebrated Music On series returns with Marco Carola b2b Franky Rizardo, East End Dubs b2b Max Dean and Ale De Tuglie who will explore all shades of house and techno.

With decades of party expertise from the legendary Pacha Ibiza, Pacha ICONS promises another season of unforgettable nights, world-class music and unparalleled beachside brilliance.

Alongside the first names announced for 2026, Pacha ICONS has revealed a special show with Keinemusik at a new location – Bab Al Shams Arena.

Tickets are available here.
