Organisers described DreamFest 2025 as a platform for community engagement and entertainment where sports competitions, live concerts, cultural stalls and food vendors will run across the complex. The festival is designed to offer activities suitable for all ages and to showcase local talent alongside global acts.
The music lineup will feature popular names such as Asim Azhar, Young Stunners, Nimra Mehra, Havi and Samar Jafri, among several other artists expected to light up the stages throughout the event.
