Would you like to see Armin van Buuren DJ in “space”?

Although the spectacular surrounding area of Ras Al Khaimah can sometimes seem otherworldly, it is still back on Earth. In a few weeks, however, legendary DJ Armin van Buuren will transform the scenic world of Ras Al Khaimah city into the cosmos — or something resembling space with lights, sound, and imagery to create an otherworldly experience.

It will be unlike any other concerts in the UAE.

Armin van Buuren at Ras Al Khaimah

Armin van Buuren is set to perform at the Ritz-Carlton Ras Al Khaimah, Al Wadi Desert on October 24, 2024 in a sensorial, never-before-seen show. The ambassador of the trance movement will present the world premiere of his spectacular outdoor show, “Pillars of Creation.”

Described as a “universal symbol of creativity and innovation in music,” Armin’s show will showcase how sound can be born, transformed, and experienced in entirely new ways. Audiences can enjoy Armin’s signature trance music mixed with multiple genres as they embark on a multi-dimensional journey.

The live show will not only reimagine the renowned DJ’s music, but it will also tell a story of birth and evolution, of space and time, of human emotion and connection. It’s the sensorial concert for everyone in the family – the kids will get a thrill out of the state-of-the-art show and the adults will definitely enjoy the music.

“Pillars of Creation” launches Ras Al Khaimah’s innovative Seven Wonders project, which will host a series of upcoming concerts in the UAE.

What exactly is Seven Wonders?

Immersive UAE Concerts in Seven Wonders

Seven Wonders is an immersive audio-and-visual platform for international artists to showcase their artistry. The brand-new event series will feature seven artists in seven stunning locations across Ras Al Khaimah.

The unique event series will run for seven weeks. Each event will highlight Ras Al Khaimah’s breathtaking natural beauty, its undulating desert landscape, awe-inspiring mountains, and pristine seas. What could be a better backdrop to inspire the innovation and creativity of the world-class artists set to perform here?

Each event will also feature cutting-edge technology to support the groundbreaking work audiences will experience. Certainly, these upcoming shows will be unlike anything you’ll ever see. 

Taking the whole family to this inventive form of entertainment will also be quite the inspiration for kids. Some of your children may have a passion for the arts or are exploring a career in the creative field. To experience any one of the seven concerts across the seven locations would provide a perfect opportunity to help them open up to the possibilities of a creative endeavor.

With Seven Wonders, the Ras Al Khaimah history of hosting world-class, culturally significant events continues, and opens a new chapter to bringing extraordinary experiences to visitors and the communities around the Nature Emirate.

But if you want to experience more than the most unique concerts in the UAE, we recommend turning this into a mini holiday with the family.

Make a Weekend of It

Whether you’re in the Emirate for a short period or live here, Ras Al Khaimah is the best destination for a mini holiday.

If you want to turn your Armin van Buuren night out into a weekend getaway, that can be arranged.

Special accommodation rates at Ras Al Khaimah hotels and resorts are available. You can book a room – or two if you’re bringing the whole family.

Transportation to the concert includes the usual luxury chauffeur services and the not-so-usual helicopter service if you wish to arrive in head-turning style.

If you prefer to make the concert a date night, the kids will have plenty of things to do in Ras Al Khaimah.

Among the attractions and activities in Ras Al Khaimah to enjoy:

  • Al Wadi Equestrian Adventure Centre
  • Jais Sky Tour
  • Jais Sledder

If you don’t make it to the “Pillars of Creation” event, since the special performance is limited to 1,000 tickets, why not spend some time in Ras Al Khaimah to prepare for the Seven Wonders events in 2025? This way, you’ll have a better idea of what to do and the best places to visit in Ras Al Khaimah when the series of events are scheduled.
