Be Beach has been confirmed as the venue, and the night is set for Saturday, April 18.

The lineup attached to the event gives the night extra weight. Alongside Francis Mercier, the announced names are Kris Fade, Dean Curtis, Celeena, and Marioo — giving the event a broader nightlife pull for Dubai partygoers already watching the city's April calendar.
What to know before you go
If you are planning to attend, the timing is already clear. The event runs on Saturday, April 18, with doors listed at 7:30 PM and the show start at 8 PM. Platinumlist shows ticket prices starting from AED 150, while the event reservation number matches the number listed across the social announcement posts.
Be Beach is located in Dubai Harbour, a venue that continues to host large-format nightlife events and DJ sets.

Who is Francis Mercier
Francis Mercier is a Haitian DJ and producer whose name has become closely tied to Afro house and melodic house sets on the international circuit. He has amassed over 400 million streams and is known for hits including "Sauti," "Premier Gaou," and "Kamili." His official tour dates page lists Dubai at Be Beach on April 18, placing the city within a broader run of global performances — confirming Dubai as an official stop on his 2026 live schedule, not a one-off rumor.
His recent event history in the UAE shows strong regional momentum: he performed at Ushuaïa Dubai in January 2026 and has a further date at WHITE Abu Dhabi in May 2026. For Be Beach, that record gives this Saturday's event extra attention from audiences who track touring electronic artists closely.
Why this matters for Dubai nightlife
Dubai has no shortage of weekend events, but a date like this stands out because it brings an internationally touring Afro house artist into one of the city's most visible waterfront venues. Add Kris Fade and the rest of the announced lineup, and this becomes one of the clearest Saturday night picks for anyone scanning what is on in Dubai this weekend.
For anyone who has been waiting on a confirmed Francis Mercier Dubai date, this one is now locked in.
