After months of anticipation, the lineup for the Daydream Festival has been finally revealed by Qatar Tourism.
The renowned festival, which features the top DJs in dance and electronic music, is held every year in a different location around the globe.
For this year, the beat is banging in Qatar during the world’s biggest football tournament— a treat for all football fans visiting the Gulf nation in the winter.
