Joel Corry and Rudimental to Headline SailGP's Dubai Showdown

Global dance music sensations Joel Corry and Rudimental are set to headline the Emirates Dubai Sail Grand Prix presented by DP World, as part of the crucial penultimate event of the 2026 Rolex SailGP Championship season. The British DJ and the British/European group will light up Mina Rashid with their electrifying performances, adding a vibrant festival ambiance to the high-octane sailing competition.

The sailboat showdown, featuring 13 international teams, will unfold on November 21-22, with the Championship-deciding Grand Final scheduled for Abu Dhabi the following week. Corry, a titan in contemporary dance music, has enjoyed six platinum UK records, while Rudimental's infectious blend of drum and bass, soul, and electronic music has sold over 25 million singles and three million albums across the globe.

The duo's performances will serve as the perfect prelude to the tense finale, where only one team will emerge victorious in the three-team Grand Final. With Australia's Bonds Flying Roos and Spain's Los Gallos already locked in, the remaining contenders will face their final test in Dubai, clinching their spot in the season-ending Mubadala Abu Dhabi Sail Grand Prix from November 28-29.

SailGP's Chief Marketing Officer, Leah Davis, expressed enthusiasm for the event, stating that the concert lineup is a testament to the unmissable weekend of entertainment. The event will feature live DJs, roaming performers, interactive activations, and the chance to test one's skills against the world's best in the official SailGP Simulator.
