Joel Corry and Rudimental to headline SailGP's Dubai showdown

Global dance music stars Joel Corry and Rudimental will headline SailGP's Après-Sail entertainment at the Emirates Dubai Sail Grand Prix presented by DP World on November 21-22.

With 13 international teams battling for crucial championship points on the water, fans can look forward to a weekend of high-speed racing and live music at Mina Rashid as the 2026 Rolex SailGP Championship approaches its conclusion.

Corry will take to the stage on Saturday November 21, bringing his signature dance anthems to the Dubai waterfront. With six Platinum UK records and a string of chart-topping hits to his name, he has established himself as one of the biggest names in contemporary dance music.

Rudimental will headline Sunday's Après-Sail on Sunday November 22, rounding off the weekend with their blend of drum and bass, soul and electronic music. The group have sold more than 25 million singles and three million albums worldwide, with a catalogue of hits that has made them a fixture on festival stages around the world.

A huge weekend on and off the water

The entertainment comes as the Rolex SailGP Championship reaches a critical stage, with Dubai hosting the penultimate event of the 2026 Season.

Australia's Bonds Flying Roos and Spain's Los Gallos have already secured their places in the three-team Grand Final, leaving one spot still up for grabs.

With the winner-takes-all Grand Final taking place in Abu Dhabi the following weekend, every point counts as the remaining contenders fight to keep their championship hopes alive.

Leah Davis, SailGP's Chief Marketing Officer, said: "Dubai has become one of the standout events in the SailGP calendar, and in Joel Corry and Rudimental we have two acts who are fitting for such an unmissable weekend of entertainment.

"Last year's event was one of the highlights of our season. With this year's mix of world-class racing and top music acts, it is set to be an incredible weekend."

More than just racing

The action won't be limited to the water. Throughout the weekend fans can enjoy live DJs, roaming performers, interactive experiences and entertainment across the Race Stadium.
