FINALISTS OF THE FIRST EVER DMC MIDDLE EAST DJ CHAMPIONSHIPS ANNOUNCED
Its the 40th anniversary of the DMC World DJ Championships and very first time in the Middle East.
In this remarkable year - the 40th anniversary of the DMC World DJ Championships - the Middle East takes the global spotlight on the DJ scene for the very first time. After weeks of intense preparations and eliminations, the organizers have selected the 15 best DJs from four countries in the region - the United Arab Emirates, Saudi Arabia, Bahrain, and Lebanon - who will face off in the Grand Final in Dubai on September 21.
This year’s call for entries exceeded all expectations - an impressive number of submissions was received, and the overall level was exceptionally high. Selecting the finalists proved to be a very challenging task, and some entries had to be disqualified for formal reasons - but these are the rules of the competition.
The OPEN category attracted the most interest, offering DJs full freedom to showcase their style, creativity, technical skills, genre-blending, and unique stage experiences. However, in both the CLASSIC and SCRATCH categories, the competition was equally fierce and the level of participants very evenly matched.
2025 Finalists:
CLASSIC Category
- DJ B Luv

At the Dubai final, champions in each of the three categories will be crowned and will go on to represent the Middle East at the World Finals in Tokyo in October. The high level of this year’s competitors guarantees a world-class show of skill and creativity.
Congratulations to the finalists and to all DJs who took part in the process, supported each other, and cheered one another on. The DMC DJ community is truly incredible and continues to grow month by month – and this is just the beginning.
