2026 in Numbers
Disputed
The infrastructure section of the resort's website describes the venue as operating, while the investment section and a news item on the BEMA award describe it as a future project. Meanwhile the festival really does take place at an open-air venue by the sea.

40 000+ per the Azerbaijani President's press service (18.04.2025); 50 000 per the BEMA award news (19.02.2026) and Trend (04.06.2026). Emin Agalarov spoke of a 50 000-seat arena on 21.05.2025, with a timeline of “within two years.”

Yes, based on indirect evidence this is one venue, though the resort has never given an official explanation. In this page's opening shot, taken from above, a "SEA BREEZE SUMMER LIVE" banner is visible on the stage roof — meaning it's a shot of the summer stage, not a separate site. The stage's construction (a gabled roof on trusses, side towers) matches the photos of the Summer Live 2024 opening and the Ricky Martin concert. The announcement of the "Qarabağ" — "Ferencvárosi" match screening (17.08.2025) names the venue directly as "Main Stage, Sea Breeze" and lists the organizer as Dream Group International — the same company behind Dream Fest.
