David Guetta Announces Next Edition Of ‘United At Home’ In Dubai!
French superstar and Dubai resident, David Guetta, ranked the world’s #1 DJ in 2020, will host his fourth #UnitedAtHome live stream for fans worldwide on the helipad of the iconic Burj Al Arab Jumeirah in Dubai. Guetta dedicates his performance to the city he calls home and invites his fans to come together at Dubai’s legendary landmark in a show of solidarity, hope, and optimism, as the world continues to battle the COVID-19 pandemic. Fans can watch the performance on Saturday, February 6th, 2021 on David Guetta’s YouTube channel here.
David Guetta is hosting his #UnitedAtHome Dubai edition to raise funds in support of UNICEF and Dubai Cares’ Education Uninterrupted campaign, a nationwide fundraising campaign that tackles the impact of the COVID-19 outbreak on the education of children and youth. The campaign called on the UAE community to make financial and in-kind donations in support of children and youth from low-income families who cannot afford to purchase a desktop computer, laptop, or tablet to join their peers in distance learning from the safety of their home. Fans can donate here.
David Guetta says, “After Miami, New York and the Louvre in Paris, I am very proud to announce that we’re heading to the top of the iconic Burj Al Arab Jumeirah for another United At Home show, this time in a city that is dear to my heart: Dubai. So far, we raised more than 1.6 million US dollars and counting, thanks to everyone across the globe who took part in this. In these difficult times, we hope to bring comfort, joy, and support through the power of music and emotions. We have supported many charities and helped make a real difference in people’s lives during the pandemic. We continue in this direction today, benefiting UNICEF and Dubai Cares.”
As a supporter of the entertainment industry and the arts, Issam Kazim, Chief Executive Officer of Dubai Corporation for Tourism and Commerce Marketing (Dubai Tourism) commented: “Dubai Tourism is proud to support the ongoing efforts of award-winning international artist David Guetta and stand together in solidarity with people all over the world. We are also appreciative of the support and efforts being made by UNICEF, Dubai Cares and Jumeirah Group to leverage the strengths of the city for a worthy cause, especially during these challenging times. As an initiative that was launched to spread positivity across communities and cultures and bring nationalities even closer, this innovative and uplifting online performance by David Guetta atop the iconic landmark of Burj Al Arab Jumeirah is symbolic of the strong sense of vibrancy and optimism prevailing across the city. We encourage fans from around the world to view David Guetta’s show online and enjoy a spectacular music performance from the safety and comfort of their homes.”
Speaking about the importance of giving and solidarity within the community amid the COVID-19 pandemic, Dr. Tariq Al Gurg, Chief Executive Officer at Dubai Cares and Member of its Board of Directors said: “We are very happy to be part of this impactful initiative with David Guetta, a renowned global DJ, which will undoubtedly play a role in alleviating the effects of the pandemic in its own way, by leaving a positive footprint on communities and bringing forth much needed optimism and joy as we recover post-pandemic. At Dubai Cares, we remain committed to continue our journey with our partners and make a lasting and positive impact in the lives of children and young people, by further increasing our impact which has so far reached over 20 million beneficiaries in 60 developing countries. With David Guetta and his millions of followers around the world, we can extend the reach of sending this message globally, and we are privileged at Dubai Cares to be a charity beneficiary of his global initiative with Dubai Tourism. This contribution to Education Uninterrupted campaign truly reflects the deeply-rooted values of renowned figures in the entertainment and art scene, in giving back to the UAE community despite the critical times that we are facing during the COVID-19 pandemic. It is imperative to remember that today’s children are tomorrow’s doctors, researchers, teachers and leaders. We should ensure that in times like these, learning should not be interrupted and education has to continue in a new form through blended and distance learning.”
Education Uninterrupted also hopes to alleviate the burden on parents who are playing a key role in their children’s distance learning, as well as support teachers in their efforts to continue delivering quality education to students during the COVID-19 pandemic and beyond. Donations can be made at this link: https://www.dubaicares.ae/supports-us/education-uninterrupted/Alexander Lee, Chief Commercial Officer of Jumeirah Group, concluded: “It is an honor to host such an exceptional event for such a worthy cause, in partnership with Dubai Cares, UNICEF and the Dubai Department of Tourism and Commerce Marketing, on the highest point of one of the world’s most iconic and instagrammed hotels, Burj Al Arab Jumeirah, the landmark hotel of the Jumeirah Group. This initiative is part of many incredible experiences brought to Dubai and joins the ranks of several spectacular and memorable events that have taken place on our helipad, capturing the attention of audiences around the world and creating a buzz for Dubai, the event in question and of course our guests. Over the years we have hosted many captivating events at Burj Al Arab Jumeirah, including the Roger Federer vs. Andre Agassi tennis match, boxing champion Anthony Joshua’s Sky Fight, the Formula One team Red Bull Racing doughnut stunt, champion Rory Mcllroy’s special golf demonstration and the Red Bull X-Fighter Danny Torres’ once-in-a-lifetime adventure, where he jumped riding his bike from a helicopter onto the helipad. All of these have highlighted Dubai as a leading destination that is worth discovering time and time again.”

David Guetta to receive Hollywood Walk of Fame star following decades of dance music impact and the growth of his Monolith shows
The Hollywood Chamber of Commerce has selected David Guetta to receive a star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame as part of its Class of 2027. The recognition follows a career that has played a major role in dance music’s global growth. From early club releases to worldwide hits such as When Love Takes Over and Titanium, David Guetta helped bring electronic production into mainstream pop on a scale few DJs had achieved before him. More than two decades later, his releases, festival appearances and Monolith shows continue to reach audiences around the world. The honour offers an opportunity to look back at his influence and the different stages of his career.

What the Hollywood Walk of Fame Honour Recognises
The Hollywood Walk of Fame named David Guetta in the Recording category alongside Karol G, Sia, Lil Wayne, Linkin Park, The Ramones, Smashing Pumpkins, Grandmaster Flash, Marc Shaiman and the late Waylon Jennings. The list spans several generations and genres, placing electronic music alongside pop, hip-hop, rock and musical composition. It also places David Guetta among artists whose work has influenced how their respective genres are represented across the wider music industry.
For dance music, his inclusion has particular significance when considering how the industry presented DJs before David Guetta’s commercial rise. Producers often remained in the credits, while vocalists became the names most listeners associated with a track. David Guetta changed that relationship through collaborations where his name received equal prominence alongside globally recognised singers. This made the producer part of each release’s public identity and helped establish the DJ as a recording artist in his own right.
David Guetta’s Impact and Influence on Dance Music
David Guetta’s influence began long before electronic music became a regular presence on pop radio. His early career developed through the Paris club scene during the rise of house music in France. After establishing himself as a DJ, he focused more closely on production and released Just a Little More Love in 2002. His international profile increased throughout the decade before One Love marked a major turning point in 2009. When Love Takes Over with Kelly Rowland and Sexy Bitch with Akon paired house production with vocalists already known to mainstream audiences. Those releases also placed David Guetta’s name at the front of songs heard far beyond dance music.
That crossover reached a larger scale through Nothing but the Beat, which featured Sia, Usher, Nicki Minaj, Flo Rida and Taio Cruz. Tracks including Titanium, Without You and Turn Me On succeeded across clubs, radio and international charts. They kept the producer central to each release instead of pushing him behind the featured vocalist. As EDM expanded during the early 2010s, more DJs received top billing and worked with major pop and hip-hop artists. David Guetta did not create that change alone, but the reach of his releases gave the model global visibility. His work showed that a producer could become one of the most recognisable names attached to a song.
His career continued to develop after that period through projects connected to different parts of electronic music. Jack Back gave David Guetta a separate outlet for house and club releases. His work with MORTEN introduced Future Rave, adding a darker direction to their festival music. More than a decade after his first crossover success, I’m Good (Blue) with Bebe Rexha returned him to the top of charts around the world. The track earned a Grammy Award nomination and later passed two billion streams on Spotify. Its success showed that David Guetta could still lead one of the world’s biggest dance-pop records years after the early-2010s EDM boom.

The Growth of David Guetta’s Monolith Shows
The growth of David Guetta’s Monolith shows has carried that longevity into his live career. What began as a production concept for club settings later expanded into large stadium events centred on his catalogue. In June 2026, David Guetta played three consecutive sold-out Ultimate Monolith Show dates at the Stade de France. The run sold approximately 240,000 tickets across the three nights.
The production featured a 32-metre monolith structure and a 60-metre curved screen. This gave the show a scale far beyond his regular festival and Ibiza appearances. Early club records, global pop collaborations and newer releases all appeared across the stadium run, connecting the different phases of his career within one performance. For an artist who began in Paris clubs, selling out one of France’s largest venues for three nights showed how far his live career had progressed.

What the Hollywood Walk of Fame Star Means for David Guetta
The Hollywood Walk of Fame star recognises more than the commercial success of individual releases. David Guetta’s career also contributed to a wider change in how the music industry views DJs and producers. By placing his name alongside major vocalists and sustaining success across clubs, festivals, radio and international charts, he helped establish a career path that became increasingly common as dance music entered popular culture.
The recognition follows a period in which David Guetta has continued to expand both his musical output and live shows. His journey from Paris clubs to global collaborations, Jack Back, Future Rave and the stadium scale of Monolith shows why the honour comes at a fitting point in his career. The star will acknowledge his own history while also recognising the larger place dance music now holds within the recording industry.

EDC Orlando Reveals Massive Lineup for November 2026 With Martin Garrix, Hardwell, David Guetta, Alesso, and more
EDC Orlando has revealed its massive lineup for November 2026, with the festival returning to Tinker Field in Orlando, Florida from November 6 to 8. Marking its 15th edition, EDC Orlando will bring more than 100 artists across three days, led by names including Martin Garrix, Hardwell, David Guetta, Alesso, Kaskade, SLANDER, Alan Walker, and Mau P. The lineup moves across mainstage names, house, techno, hard dance, bass music, dubstep, sunset sets, b2b sets, and curated stage takeovers, giving the 2026 edition one of its biggest artist spreads so far. It also follows the 30th anniversary of Electric Daisy Carnival in Las Vegas, with the kineticJOURNEY theme continuing into Orlando for the festival’s next chapter under the Florida sunshine.
Breaking Down The EDC Orlando November 2026 Lineup
View this post on Instagram
The EDC Orlando November 2026 lineup brings the festival back to Tinker Field in Orlando, Florida with more than 100 artists across three days, covering mainstage names, house, techno, hard dance, bass music, dubstep, b2b sets, sunset sets, and branded stage takeovers. The lineup features Martin Garrix, Hardwell, David Guetta, Alesso, Kaskade, SLANDER, Alan Walker, Mau P, Afrojack, Alok, Steve Aoki, Meduza, and Alison Wonderland, placing several major international acts alongside artists from more genre specific corners of the electronic music scene. For its 15th edition, that range gives EDC Orlando more structure than a standard headliner led reveal, especially with Factory 93, Bassrush, and Insomniac Records also part of the November 2026 lineup.
House and tech house take up a major part of the EDC Orlando November 2026 lineup, with Prospa B2B Josh Baker, Max Dean B2B Luke Dean, Chris Lorenzo, Dennis Cruz, Franky Rizardo, Omar+, Rossi., Brunello, Kinahau, AYYBO, Joshwa, and Disco Lines included across the three days. The techno and hard dance side is also clearly represented through Klangkuenstler, KI/KI, Nico Moreno, I Hate Models, Boys Noize B2B Brutalismus 3000, Marlon Hoffstadt, and Adrián Mills, adding several names that sit closer to warehouse, rave, and faster club sounds within the festival lineup. Bass music and dubstep have a large presence as well, with Wooli, Levity, Ray Volpe, ALLEYCVT, ATLiens, Of The Trees, LAYZ, Level Up, Jessica Audiffred, and Skull Machine all on the bill. Sets such as Deorro B2B DIESEL and San Holo’s Wholesome Riddim Set also make the lineup feel more specific than a simple list of big names, giving EDC Orlando several back to back and special set moments across the weekend.
The branded stage takeovers add more detail to the EDC Orlando November 2026 lineup, with Factory 93, Bassrush, and Insomniac Records helping separate the weekend by sound without making the lineup feel split into isolated genre sections. Factory 93 points toward the house and techno names on the bill, while Bassrush connects directly to the bass, dubstep, drum and bass, and heavier electronic acts already included in the lineup. Insomniac Records also brings the label side into the weekend, adding another link between the festival and the wider Insomniac catalog. With the kineticJOURNEY theme continuing from the 30th anniversary of Electric Daisy Carnival in Las Vegas, the November 2026 edition sits inside a bigger EDC year, while Hotel EDC Orlando at Margaritaville Resort Orlando adds a new travel focused part of the festival for attendees staying in Florida.
EDC Orlando Returns To Tinker Field For Its 15th Edition
EDC Orlando returns to Tinker Field in Orlando, Florida from November 6 to 8, 2026, bringing its 15th edition back to the venue connected to the festival’s Orlando history since 2011. Located at 287 S Tampa Ave, Tinker Field dates back to 1914 and became part of the United States National Register of Historic Places in 2004, giving the festival a setting with more local history than a standard event site. Its location also keeps the festival close to Downtown Orlando and within reach of Orlando International Airport, which matters for a three day event that brings both local attendees and international travelers into Florida. For the 2026 edition, that return keeps EDC Orlando tied to the same city and venue where it has grown across more than a decade.
The 15th edition also expands the weekend beyond the festival grounds, with Hotel EDC Orlando making its debut at Margaritaville Resort Orlando from November 6 to 9. The resort takeover marks the first East Coast edition of Hotel EDC, adding EDC themed rooms, on site Vibee concierge, daytime parties, after parties, and package options that can include GA, GA+, or VIP festival passes. Alongside the kineticJOURNEY theme continuing from the 30th anniversary of Electric Daisy Carnival in Las Vegas, the November 2026 edition connects the Orlando festival to a wider EDC year while giving attendees another way to turn the weekend into a full Florida trip.
What To Know Before EDC Orlando 2026
With the lineup now revealed, EDC Orlando 2026 moves into its ticket release for the November 6 to 8 weekend at Tinker Field in Orlando, Florida. Three day GA, GA+, and VIP passes go on sale Thursday, June 25 at 12PM EST through the festival’s official ticketing platform. For its 15th edition, EDC Orlando will bring more than 100 artists across five stages, with Factory 93, Bassrush, and Insomniac Records also part of the weekend through branded stage takeovers.
The 2026 edition will also introduce Hotel EDC Orlando at Margaritaville Resort Orlando, running from November 6 to 9 as the first East Coast edition of Hotel EDC. The resort takeover includes EDC themed rooms, on site Vibee concierge, daytime parties, after parties, and package options that can include festival passes. Between the lineup, the return to Tinker Field, the kineticJOURNEY theme, and the debut of Hotel EDC Orlando, the November 2026 edition gives attendees more than just the three festival days in Florida.

New EDM Friday May 29 brings new music from Tiësto, Skrillex, David Guetta, Frank Walker, and more.
New EDM Friday May 29 brings together new singles, EPs, album releases, and records made for clubs and festival sets, covering house, bass, techno, and crossover electronic music. From Tiësto and Olivia Sebastianelli with Don’t Lose Your Head to David Guetta and Bebe Rexha with Sad Girls, Skrillex, Frank Walker, Blanke, and Wax Motif, these are the tracks you should not miss on this week’s New EDM Friday.
Tiësto ft. Olivia Sebastianelli – Don’t Lose Your Head
Tiësto teams up with Olivia Sebastianelli on Don’t Lose Your Head, a new single released through Musical Freedom on May 29. The track was first previewed during Tiësto’s EDC Las Vegas 2026 set at circuitGROUNDS, where it arrived as part of his continuing return to trance-rooted production. It also follows Bring Me To Life with FORS and Beautiful Places with Brieanna Grace, both linked to the rollout of his forthcoming album. With its EDC Las Vegas 2026 debut, vocal feature, and placement in Tiësto’s current album cycle, Don’t Lose Your Head gives this week’s New EDM Friday one of its main headline releases.
David Guetta & Bebe Rexha – Sad Girls
David Guetta and Bebe Rexha reunite on Sad Girls, marking another release from one of the most commercially successful artist pairings in modern dance music. The collaboration follows previous records including I’m Good (Blue), One In A Million, Family, and David Guetta’s role in Bebe Rexha’s breakthrough hit Hey Mama. Released as part of the rollout for Bebe Rexha’s upcoming album Dirty Blonde, the track continues her recent move back toward dance-focused releases while bringing her together once again with one of the defining names of global EDM. With a partnership that has already produced multiple chart hits across the past decade, Sad Girls arrives as one of the biggest crossover releases on this week’s New EDM Friday.
Frank Walker – OASIS
Frank Walker releases his sophomore album OASIS through Palm Tree Records, the label founded by Kygo in partnership with Sony Music Entertainment. Across 12 tracks, the album brings together dance-pop production, songwriting-led collaborations, and a wider emotional focus around freedom, love, escape, and self-discovery. The project includes ARTY, Bryce Vine, VAVO, Josh Ross, Norma Jean Martine, TELYKAST, Steerner, Danielle Bradbery, Ryos, Good Humans, salem ilese, and more, with Remember Us featuring Dustin Lynch serving as the focus track. As his second full-length project, OASIS gives this week’s New EDM Friday a major album release from one of Canada’s leading dance-pop artists.
Blanke – SKYFIRE
Blanke continues the rollout toward his debut album with SKYFIRE, a two-track EP released as the second part of his ongoing album series. The project includes Arsenal and Beautiful Tragedy, with the first track pulling from Blanke’s earlier bass sound and the second moving closer to the melodic dance influences that first brought him into electronic music. The EP also comes during a busy year for Blanke, with direct support dates for REZZ, festival appearances at Ubbi Dubbi, Beyond Wonderland at The Gorge, and Rampage Open Air, alongside continued growth for his drum and bass alias ÆON:MODE. As a compact release tied to a larger album world, SKYFIRE adds a strong bass-focused entry to this week’s New EDM Friday.
MAYETRIX – HOLD ME CLOSE 2 U
MAYETRIX makes his bitbird debut with HOLD ME CLOSE 2 U, his first original release after building early traction through SoundCloud remixes and unofficial flips. The Australian producer, also known as Josh Sytema, has developed a sound connected to hypertrap, dubstep, and Y2K-influenced bass music, with one of his flips reaching Coachella 2026 before he had released an original track. HOLD ME CLOSE 2 U moves the project into a more personal space, pairing soft synths with distorted bass while centering on human connection and the difficulty of expressing appreciation for people close to you. As his first official release and first appearance on bitbird, the track gives this week’s New EDM Friday a strong debut entry from a new name in bass music.
Wax Motif – Bite Down
Wax Motif returns with Bite Down, a new Insomniac Records single arriving after the release of his sophomore album House of Wax II and his EDC Las Vegas 2026 performance. The track keeps his groove-focused house sound at the center, with darker basslines, vocal work, and club-focused drums tying it back to the style he has built across both underground and crossover releases. It also follows a major album cycle that included collaborators such as Ty Dolla $ign, ZHU, DJ Jazzy Jeff, Jozzy, Maeta, MC Lan, 24hrs, and GTA. Coming after House of Wax II and early support at EDC Las Vegas 2026, Bite Down gives this week’s New EDM Friday a club-focused release from one of house music’s strongest cross-genre producers.
What So Not ft. Alina Pash – EVEREST
What So Not opens his next project era with EVEREST, the first single from his forthcoming EP I SAW A TRAP DJ AND IT CHANGED MY BIO CHEMISTRY. The track reunites him with Alina Pash after Tragic, their collaboration from What So Not and Buunshin’s 2025 EP The Quiet That Hurts, but this release pushes their partnership into a larger trap-focused sound tied to his early electronic roots. Alina Pash brings Ukrainian-language writing into the track, with What So Not describing the original studio session as the first time they created together in Los Angeles. As the first official release from his newly announced EP, EVEREST gives this week’s New EDM Friday a major trap and bass entry from one of Australia’s most influential electronic producers.
R3HAB – Lost in translation…
R3HAB continues the rollout toward his upcoming album with ‘Lost in translation…’, the sixth release tied to the project and another step in the producer’s evolving sound direction. Released through his own CYB3RPVNK label, the track leans into melodic dance production while continuing the balance between club-focused energy and crossover songwriting that has defined much of R3HAB’s recent catalog.
