Dubai is set to host the 30th edition of the Dubai World Cup on Saturday, March 28, 2026, at Meydan Racecourse. Recognised as one of the world’s richest horse racing events, this year’s fixture features nine races and a total prize pool of US$30.5 million, including US$12 million for the main race. The event continues to bring together sport, fashion, hospitality and live entertainment in one setting.
Closing the evening, R&B artist Jason Derulo will headline the post-race concert. With a catalogue spanning over 15 years, his set is expected to include tracks such as “Swalla,” “Take You Dancing,” “Savage Love,” “Ridin’ Solo,” “Whatcha Say,” and “In My Head.” The performance will conclude a full day of racing and on-site experiences.
In addition to the racing programme, guests can access social villages, hospitality lounges and dining concepts across the venue. The Style Stakes fashion competition will also return, continuing its association with race-day style at the event.
