Responding to relentless guest demand for extended, day-to-night parties at the incredible beach and poolside spot, Zero Gravity is giving the Dubai crowd a monthly One Big Friday this winter season – with the remaining 2016 events taking place on Friday November 4 and Friday December 9.
One Big Friday on November 4 features Erick Morillo, Mambo Brothers and Krafty Kuts & A.Skillz. Erick Morillo is one of the world’s most instantly recognisable and internationally- demanded DJs of our time. The American/Colombian house music master’s skills have seen him score residencies at Ministry of Sound, London and Space, Ibiza; host infamous roadblock parties including Subliminal Sessions at the Winter Music Conference in Miami and play up to 30 global gigs a month. Known for flawlessly transforming tracks from Whitney Houston to Basement Jaxx, this Latin-influenced dance veteran is a huge, high-energy headliner for this Zero Gravity festival.
Born and raised in Ibiza, Mambo Brothers have party spirit flowing through their veins. The house duo cut their teeth warming up for the likes of Carl Cox and Roger Sanchez across the White Isle’s biggest bars and clubs, before really finding fame in 2014 with their first international tour. Krafty Kuts & A.Skillz return to Zero Gravity for the first time since their successful 2015 residency. With hip-hop music at the heart of every track they spin, the infectious British DJ pair have an electrifying intensity that knows no bounds, plus a deep-set love for the Dubai crowd.
One Big Friday on December 9 features Sam Feldt and further artists (to be announced). Currently making waves on his first US tour, 23-year-old Dutch DJ Sam Feldt is floating on a cloud of screaming fans and industry respect for 2016. His career was catapulted with the 2015 dance track ‘Show Me Love’, which has seen him share a stage with Kygo, Klingande and Robin Schulz in the last 12 months. At the very crest of his success, Sam’s melodic and tantalising deep house sound is the perfect fit for the final One Big Friday of 2016, with more names to join the party.
ABOUT ONE BIG FRIDAY: Spanning a full 12 hours, from 3pm to 3am, One Big Friday is Zero Gravity’s poolside festival-style event. Zero Gravity launched One Big Friday in November 2015.
