Where can I find live music or concerts on New Year’s Eve in the UAE?

The UAE hosts several live music events and concerts on New Year’s Eve, especially in Dubai and Abu Dhabi.

In Dubai, popular hotels and venues like Atlantis The Palm, Coca-Cola Arena and various beach clubs bring in international and regional artists to perform. Major venues on Yas Island in Abu Dhabi, such as the Etihad Arena and Yas Marina, are known for hosting large concerts featuring famous performers. Music festivals and themed parties with live DJ sets are also common at popular nightclubs and lounges in Downtown Dubai, JBR and the Dubai Marina area. Tickets for these concerts are generally available online and purchasing them early is recommended, as these events draw large crowds and may sell out. For those looking for a mix of live music and family-friendly settings, venues like Global Village and La Mer often feature live bands and entertainment, making them great options to enjoy New Year’s Eve with loved ones.

Tips for participants when enjoying:

Make Reservations in Advance: Due to the great demand for New Year's Eve celebrations, many venues and events, particularly those with well-known artists or live music, need reservations in advance.
Dress Code: Make sure you're dressed suitably for the event by checking in advance since certain locations, particularly expensive hotels and beach clubs, have severe dress restrictions.
Arrive Early: It's a good idea to arrive early to ensure a decent location because most of these sites tend to grow packed as midnight draws near.
