DUBAI: Bringing the unmistakable spirit of Ibiza to the Middle East, Ushuaïa Dubai made a dazzling debut in October 2024 at Dubai Harbour, launching with a headline performance from Calvin Harris. Within weeks, the open-air venue had cemented its reputation as one of the city’s most electrifying nightlife destinations, drawing an ongoing roster of global talent.

At the core of the venue’s demanding audio infrastructure lies the reliability of Van Damme cabling, supplied by regional distributor NMK Electronics and expertly installed by SLS Production. “Ushuaia Dubai is a high-profile project with complex technical requirements, so reliability and performance were critical. Van Damme Cabling ensured that the system would perform flawlessly under pressure,” said Praveen Jayakumar, Associate Technical Director at SLS Production.

A significant quantity of Van Damme Black Series Tour Grade Multicore Speaker Cable and Van Damme VDM PA-CONS has been deployed throughout the 18,000-capacity venue to deliver pristine signal integrity and total reliability. The Black Series Tour Grade Multicore, built to withstand the rigours of touring and large-scale productions, combines rugged durability with exceptional handling. Meanwhile, the VDM PA-CONS has become a preferred choice among audio professionals seeking robust connectivity and uncompromising sound quality.

As the Winter 2025 season unfolds, excitement is building for Calvin Harris’s much-anticipated return in November, alongside an impressive line-up of international artists and underground acts. Blending standing and seated zones with luxurious VIP cabanas, Ushuaïa Dubai continues to merge world-class production values with its signature high-energy party atmosphere. “A venue of this scale and prestige demands absolute clarity from every component,” added Jayakumar. “Van Damme has given us the confidence that every performance will meet the highest standards.”
