Dubai Harbour

Musical powerhouse Francis Mercier makes his highly anticipated return to Ushuaïa Dubai Harbour Experience in 2026 with his new party brand Solèy. The unique blend of Afro house, Latin house, deep house, and soulful sounds will reverberate across the open-air venue in Dubai Harbour on Saturday 17th January.
This special event is a celebration of connection, joy and movement, all with the backdrop of Dubai’s iconic skyline. Evocative percussion, spiritual frequencies and melodic depth are all at the heart of the music that Francis Mercier makes and the artists he curates at Solèy.
The Haitian DJ has amassed over 400 million streams and has made a name for himself in the international scene with his electrifying live sets, and with hits such as “Sauti” “Premier Gaou” and “Kamili”. Solèy, which means “sun” in Haitian Creole, is a global community rooted in multiculturalism, which Mercier has taken to Paris, London, Mumbai, LA, Ibiza, Tulum and even the Giza Pyramids in Egypt.
In January 2025, Mercier made an impact when he took his Deep Root Tribe show to Ushuaïa Dubai Harbour Experience for the first time. A euphoric night of sonic alchemy, bespoke production, intricate design, and immersive installations. The same approach he’s taking for his grand return in January 2026.
As the founder of Deep Root Records and Deep Root Tribe, Mercier has reshaped the house music landscape, topping charts globally and earning widespread acclaim for both his music and the artists he releases. A man dedicated to creating transcendent soundscapes that connect audiences across cultures.
