Presented by Live Nation Middle East and Brag, in partnership with and Miral, the official Abu Dhabi Grand Prix after-party promises an immersive celebration of electronic music, cutting-edge visuals, and world-class performances.

Following the success of his Genesys trilogy and his groundbreaking residency at Sphere Las Vegas, Anyma continues to push creative boundaries with his latest audiovisual production, ÆDEN.
Joining Anyma is Kevin de Vries, one of the leading names in melodic techno and a longstanding Afterlife artist. Known for his immersive, driving productions and captivating performances, de Vries has established himself on the global electronic music circuit, with appearances at Coachella, Tomorrowland, Awakenings, and EDC Las Vegas, alongside performances at Sphere Las Vegas and UNVRS Ibiza. His distinctive sound and ability to build an electrifying connection with the dancefloor make him a natural addition to the evening’s lineup.
19:26 will add his cinematic approach to electronic music to Yas Gateway Park, blending emotional soundscapes, neoclassical influences, and forward-thinking production. The Italian artist has earned recognition through releases on Afterlife and Siamese, including his collaboration with Anyma on ‘Giza’. Having performed at leading venues and festivals worldwide, including Hï Ibiza, Kappa Futur Festival, and Zamna, 19:26 has developed a signature sound that balances melodic intensity with intricate storytelling. Meanwhile, Recondite (live) will offer a more atmospheric dimension to the night, with his carefully crafted live performance combining hypnotic rhythms, distinctive acid influences, and introspective melodies. Renowned for his releases on Innervisions, Ghostly, and his own Plangent Records, the German artist has built an international following through his unmistakable sound and emotionally driven performances.
Completing the lineup, 8Kays and Dish Dash will add further depth and energy to the night.
