UAE Live Events Season in Full Swing with Star-Studded Lineup

The UAE's live events season is in full swing with a packed calendar of concerts and performances lined up across Abu Dhabi and Dubai.

From pop and rock to stand-up comedy, ballet, opera, and musicals, the months ahead offer something for every taste. Italian tenor Andrea Bocelli will perform his stirring arias in Abu Dhabi in December, while Abu Dhabi Comedy Season has announced its first wave of shows led by Palestinian-American star Mo Amer.

Najwa Karam will bring her greatest hits to Dubai's Coca-Cola Arena, and audiences can look forward to shows by Vir Das, Atif Aslam, and Hiba Tawaji with Ibrahim Maalouf. Abu Dhabi Festival and NYU Abu Dhabi Arts Centre will also bring a strong classical programme later in the year, including American Ballet Theatre, Dhafer Youssef, and Sondra Radvanovsky.
