This edition of Quoz Arts Fest, the region’s biggest annual arts and culture festival, marks a cultural movement led by the homegrown creatives who call Alserkal Avenue and Al Quoz their home. Celebrating the cultural thinkers and makers within music, art, design and performance realms across the UAE and beyond, the 8th edition of Quoz Arts Fest showcases the breadth and depth of creativity across the arts that can be found in Al Quoz.

Organised by Alserkal, we hope you enjoy this two-day festival of live music, contemporary dance performances, art exhibitions, food trucks, outdoor art installations, and film screenings.
