Hot Mess Sunsets to host Saliah at Helipad Dubai with Nuit de Folie
Feb 05, 2025
In a city where club nights often stick to a familiar formula, Hot Mess and Nuit de Folie are carving out a space for something different. On Saturday, February 8, the two collectives are joining forces to bring Saliah to Helipad Dubai, setting the stage for a night where UK bass meets Arabic club culture.
Saliah has been steadily reshaping the sound of contemporary club music, remixing Arabic classics through a UK underground lens. Her sets, where heavy basslines and high-energy percussion precision collide with reworked Middle Eastern anthemhave earned her a growing presence on Boiler Room, BBC Radio 1, and festival circuits worldwide.
With doors opening at 5 PM, the night is set to unfold against a backdrop of the city's skyline before descending into the kind of carefully curated chaos both Hot Mess and Nuit de Folie thrive on.
Limited presale tickets are available from tickit.co
