FOOTNOTES

• There are only three criteria that an act has to adhere to to take part, they have to be UAE based, perform original material and they have to be good!
• The Al Quoz warehouse venue prides itself on being a stripped-down artistic environment, which does away with the distractions of drinks, snacks and elaborate staging, instead focusing on the performance experience.
