Chase & Status confirmed as Emirates Dubai 7s final-day headliners 

Drum and bass duo, Chase & Status, will headline the final day of this year’s Emirates Dubai 7s, completing a star-studded music line up which also includes R&B superstar, Akon, along with DJs Melanie C and Jax Jones.

On Sunday, November 29, Chase & Status will take centre stage, bringing their explosive sound and unmistakable energy to Frequency on 8 as they close this year’s event, following in the footsteps of FISHER, who delivered an unforgettable finale in 2025.

After releasing their debut album in 2008, Chase & Status have gone on to enjoy a hugely successful career and picked up their maiden Brit Award, for Producer of the Year, in 2024.

It was in the same year that they secured their first UK number one single courtesy of “Backbone”, a collaboration with Stormzy.

With over 2 billion streams to their name, Chase & Status are one of the most talented and highly regarded electronic acts globally.

They continue to make new music with their latest album, “Generic Everything,” released last month.

Early next year, they will embark upon a world tour, performing in destinations including the UK, Germany, Poland, France, New Zealand and Australia.

Mathew Tait, Festival Director of Emirates Dubai 7s, said: "One of the biggest names in electronic music, Chase & Status are renowned for their incredible live performances, and we know they will provide a spectacular finale to what promises to be another fantastic event. 

“With Akon, Melanie C and Jax Jones also joining the line-up, we have an outstanding programme of entertainment for fans to enjoy, and we look forward to welcoming them all to The Sevens Stadium."

Tickets for the three-day festival, which takes place at The Sevens Stadium from November 27-29, are available via the official website and app.
