Melanie C and Jax Jones are joining Emirates Dubai 7s. Something for everyone who comes for the rugby but spends remarkably little time watching it.
The festival returns to The Sevens Stadium, 27–29 November. Melanie C plays Beats on 2 on Saturday, followed by Jax Jones on Sunday. They’re the latest additions to that stage, not the full music line-up.
Saturday for Melanie C
Melanie C is playing a DJ set, not a Spice Girls concert. Important information for the group chat.
Expect house, techno, disco and club classics. Watch the rugby, then give your own legs something to do.
“Come for the rugby. Or Melanie C. You don’t have to pretend.”
Sunday for Jax Jones
Jax Jones plays Sunday 29 November, with You Don’t Know Me and Breathe among the tracks flagged in the announcement.
It’s also HSBC SVNS finals and trophy day. Come for the rugby, stay for the DJ. Or the other way round, if anyone asks.
Which Ticket Makes Sense?
Saturday or Sunday costs AED 455 per adult. A three-day pass is AED 595, so seeing both artists adds AED 140 to a single-day ticket. Worth doing the maths before declaring yourself strictly a Saturday person.
Friday is AED 75, with free entry for under-15s and an extended kids’ zone. A cheaper family outing, but neither Melanie C nor Jax Jones plays that day.
On Saturday and Sunday, children’s tickets cost AED 40 for ages 4–9 and AED 115 for ages 10–14. Under-fours enter free but still need registering.
