Experience the fourth edition of BRED Abu Dhabi, where neo-culture, streetwear, music, and art collide spectacularly
BRED Abu Dhabi is back, and it’s bigger, bolder, and more alive than ever. From April 22 to 26, Yas Marina Circuit transforms into a playground for the region’s creative communities, bringing together music, fashion, art, sport, gaming, and food under one roof. This is neo-culture in motion, and it’s all about the people shaping it today and tomorrow.

Since its debut in 2023, BRED has become the Middle East’s definitive hub for youth expression and Arab creativity. What started as a fresh take on street culture has grown into a festival that pulses with energy, spotlighting both local talent and international heavyweights. Past editions have seen names like Metro Boomin, Nas, PARTYNEXTDOOR, Offset, and Cairokee take the stage, while original tracks like “Hena” have captured the sound of a generation.

The 2026 edition, themed “The People of Neo-Culture, Today & Tomorrow,” dives into the evolving cultural landscape. It celebrates creativity rooted in heritage but always looking forward, exploring how communities shape culture in real time. Festival goers can expect innovative collaborations, eye-catching performances, and experiences designed to surprise and inspire.
Foodies have reason to rejoice too. Skinny Louie, the cult burger chain from the US, will be dishing up its signature smash burgers, while BRED’s neo-gallery opens with a limited-edition photography book featuring the region’s brightest lenses, including Yasmina Hilal, Taqwa Bint Ali, and Ali Al Shehabi. Their work will also be on display throughout the festival, setting the tone for a visual journey that’s as dynamic as the music and fashion around it.
