Jason Derulo to Headline 30th Dubai World Cup After-Race Show at Meydan Racecourse

Global pop icon Jason Derulo will headline the official after-race entertainment at the 30th Dubai World Cup, taking place at Meydan Racecourse on Saturday, March 28, 2026.

Derulo, one of the most recognizable names in international music, has sold over 250 million singles worldwide and earned 14 platinum certifications in the US. Known for his high-energy performances and hits such as Whatcha Say, In My Head, Ridin’ Solo, and UK No.1 Don’t Wanna Go Home, he is set to deliver an unforgettable performance at this landmark sporting event.

The announcement comes following the release of Derulo’s latest album, The Last Dance (Part 1), with Part 2 expected later this year. The album features a fresh take on Avril Lavigne’s iconic track Complicated and marks the closing chapter of the Jason Derulo era fans have come to know, before embarking on his next creative journey.

World-class entertainment has been a hallmark of the Dubai World Cup, and the 30th edition promises to be bigger and more spectacular than ever. Last year’s closing ceremony broke multiple Guinness World Records, and Derulo’s performance aims to elevate the celebration even further. The concert coincides with his European The Last Dance World Tour, which began on January 29 and includes over 25 arena dates across the UK and Europe.

The Dubai World Cup is renowned as one of the world’s premier race days, blending elite equestrian sport, international glamour, and record-breaking entertainment. Tickets are available through dubairacingclub.com, with concert access included for all hospitality guests, including Apron Views. Royal Enclosure ticket holders enjoy Golden Circle access, which can also be added to certain hospitality packages. General Public tickets do not include Golden Circle access.

With nearly 250 million followers across social media platforms, Derulo is a multi-platform powerhouse, ranking among the top pop and urban artists of his generation. From his humble beginnings as a “kid from a Haitian family in Miami,” he has steadily risen to become one of the most prolific artists of his era. His recent viral hit Snake, featuring Nora Fatehi, has amassed over 124 million views, and Derulo ranks as the fourth most-followed male on TikTok, cementing his influence both online and on the charts.

Fans attending the Dubai World Cup can expect a high-energy, visually spectacular performance from one of pop music’s biggest stars, ensuring the 30th edition is a truly unforgettable event.
