Ain’t no party like a Fort Worth Party. Ubbi Dubbi Festival 2025 is right around the corner, and we’re getting excited.

With an estimated 50,000 attendees, making a plan and knowing your stuff is surefire way to get the most out of the event.

What is it?

Ubbi Dubbi is a two-day EDM festival, inviting electronic music lovers from across the globe to enjoy some of the world’s biggest + best DJs and performers. The festival has taken place annually since 2019, with a pandemic-induced year off.

And it’s getting extraterrestrial. For 2025, organizers invite festival goers to “step through a portal into a parallel universe where everything is familiar yet thrillingly different.” They promise “a journey through the cosmos [to] discover new worlds of music, art and community.”

Where and when?

On Saturday, April 26 + Sunday, April 27, the festivities will take over Panther Island Pavilion in downtown Cowtown. Each day, the gates open at 3 p.m., but at 10 p.m., it’s time to go home. Or to the next stop.

Pro tip: Parking lots open at 2 p.m. and costs $25. Ride share services will also be operating per usual, with a designated pickup location outside the venue.

Night time at Ubbi Dubbi Festival. The stage is lit up red, and is shooting dozens of red laser lights above the crowd of thousands, which is facing toward the stage with us. Fireworks are above the stage in front of a jet black sky.

Fun fact: “Laser” is an acronym for “light amplification by stimulated emission of radiation.”

Who is playing?

The lineup is chock-full of world-class DJs who will light up a trio of stages across the event. Among the performers is What So Not, Patrick Topping, Sunday Scaries, Fisher, and dozens more.

What else do I need to know?

Tickets start at $85 (plus an additional $15 service fee) for a single-day. Two-day tickets are available, as well as a range of VIP packages.

Make sure to check out the festival’s full list of guidelines, rules, and restrictions, so you know what to bring and what to leave at home. Here’s a few things we noticed:

  • There is no re-entry for ins-and-outs.
  • Tickets are non-refundable.
  • Totems are allowed, but must be made from lightweight materials.

Have fun out there, folks.
