Music to our ears

After the success of two new festivals in 2014, organisers have announced their second editions next year.

Virgin Radio RedFestDXB is set to take place on February 12 and 13 at Dubai Media City Amphitheatre, after welcoming the likes of Rita Ora (pictured), The Lumineers and Jessie J for its debut outing.

Done Events has also announced that its Blended festival will return at the same venue from April 30 to May 1 - having previously hosted acts like Elvis Costello, Aloe Blacc and Joss Stone.
