AFRO n FRNDS - DJ Maphorisha and Oscar MBO

A new sonic ritual is coming to the heart of the city. On Wednesday, 27 May (EID WEEKEND), VICE in Downtown Dubai will introduce AFRO n FRNDS, a brand-new nightlife concept designed to celebrate the niche, the influential, and the utterly hypnotic in Amapiano, Afro-house, and Afrobeats.

Billed as “a first of its kind Afro experience,” Vol 1 brings together two global heavyweights: DJ Maphorisha and Oscar MBO, live with special guests. Known for setting international dancefloors ablaze, the duo will deliver a masterclass in groove, alongside a lineup of surprise acts curated by the most influential names in the scene.

The night promises more than just a party. Attendees can expect back-to-back DJ sets, live performances, and a seamless journey from the first beat to the last dance. VICE’s immersive interior will transform into a vibrant oasis of music, culture, and pure energy.

“AFRO n FRNDS isn’t just an event, it’s an escape,” organizers shared. “A music-fueled journey into culture, connection, and unforgettable memories. This is the way it should be.”
