Zamna Stacks Marco Carola, CamelPhat and Gordo for Sharm El Sheikh Return
Phase two adds Marco Carola, CamelPhat, Gordo and Major League DJZ to a Sinai desert weekend that already had Sasha, John Digweed and SHIMZA locked in.
Egypt’s desert-rave era is officially not slowing down. Zamna Sharm El Sheikh — November 20-22, 2026 at Khoroum Valley in South Sinai, Egypt — just dropped its phase-two lineup, and the additions are heavy: Marco Carola, CamelPhat, Gordo and Major League DJZ all join the three-day takeover, about fifteen minutes outside the Sharm El Sheikh city center.
They’re not exactly walking into an empty room, either. The new names stack on top of an already serious first phase featuring Sasha, John Digweed, Mëstiza and SHIMZA, while the wider bill pulls in Mind Against, Korolova, MRAK, Brina Knauss, Asal b2b Sona, Dish Dash and more. One name worth a double take: Elvis Guetta — yes, David Guetta’s son — makes his Egypt debut as part of the weekend. According to the announcement, the site will hold up to 20,000 people per day, which for a valley in the Sinai desert is a wild sentence to type.
If the setting sounds familiar, that’s because this is Zamna’s second run at Khoroum Valley after the brand — best known for its Tulum jungle parties — first planted a flag there earlier this year. And Zamna’s hardly alone in betting on Egypt right now: ARGY just took his NEWORLD live show to the Pyramids of Giza, and the country keeps popping up on the international circuit’s map. Between the Red Sea, the mountains and a lineup like this, you can see why.
The practical stuff: it’s an 18+ event with photo ID required, general admission covers all three days, and tickets are moving through the venue’s official site, with GA starting at $250 and VIP options from $375. Shuttle transfers run from partner hotels, and the festival is keeping its leave-no-trace policy in effect — pack out what you pack in, even in the desert.
November is shaping up absurdly stacked worldwide — this lands the same weekend as Dreamstate SoCal, because of course it does. If you’re weighing your options, our 2026-2027 festival calendar has the full picture. But if “Marco Carola in a Sinai valley at 3 a.m.” speaks to you on a spiritual level, you already know what to do.
