Zamna is set to return to Egypt’s Khoroum Valley from the 20th – 22nd November, expanding the desert festival experience to a 20,000-capacity event. Set within one of the Middle East’s most dramatic natural landscapes, the festival will feature a first wave lineup including Sasha, John Digweed, Mind Against, Korolova, MRAK, Mëstiza and SHIMZA.

Originating in Tulum, Mexico, Zamna has become one of the world’s leading destination electronic music brands, staging immersive festivals in extraordinary natural locations across the globe. Its Egyptian edition takes place at Khoroum Valley, just outside Sharm El Sheikh, where a natural amphitheatre framed by towering granite rock formations creates one of the region’s most spectacular festival settings. By day, the landscape offers hiking trails and Bedouin camps; after dark, it transforms into an open-air venue where lighting and production interact with the surrounding landscape. Following Zamna’s debut there in 2025, Khoroum Valley is rapidly emerging as one of the Middle East’s most distinctive electronic music destinations.

Leading the lineup for the second edition, Sasha and John Digweed reunite in the desert, bringing the progressive house sound they helped define in the 1990s. They are joined by Korolova, Mind Against, MRAK, Mëstiza and SHIMZA, with further artists to be announced in the coming weeks.

Building on the success of its inaugural edition, Zamna Khoroum Valley returns with increased capacity, expanded production and a wider international lineup, further cementing its place as one of the Middle East’s standout electronic music experiences.

Tickets are available here.
