The initial lineup announcement, featuring Calvin Harris, Alesso, and Afrojack, generated considerable interest in the event. These artists are globally recognized names in the EDM world, known for their chart-topping hits and energetic live shows. The addition of Feeona, Againstcelebrities, A.M.R, and Pierre Fares broadens the appeal of the festival, catering to a wider range of electronic music preferences.
According to Visit Qatar, the lineup is expected to expand further in the coming weeks, with additional artists to be announced. Organizers are also finalizing details regarding stage production, VIP experiences, and logistical arrangements to ensure a smooth and enjoyable event for all attendees. The success of the festival will likely influence future entertainment investments in the region.
Further artist announcements are anticipated before the end of the year, and organizers will continue to refine the festival experience based on attendee feedback and logistical considerations. The long-term impact of the 25N51E music festival on Qatar’s tourism and entertainment industries remains to be seen, but it represents a significant step in the country’s efforts to establish itself as a global destination.
