Mariah Carey will perform in Dubai to mark one year to Dubai Expo 2020

Global superstar and our beloved 90s icon, Mariah Carey will be performing in Dubai this month alongside Emirati singer, Hussain Al Jassmi. The concert, which will take place on Sunday October 30^th, will mark the official 365 day countdown to Expo 2020. The singer, who has given us countless hits such as ‘We belong together’ and ‘Hero’, will be returning to the city after her gig at Dubai Jazz Festival in 2017.

‘One year to go’ will be taking place in Burj Park with the stunning Burj Khalifa as its backdrop, and the best part is that the concert is free to attend. Other artists from the region who will also be seen performing include DJ Bliss, Abri and the Funk Radius, a Dubai-based band, and Khalifa.

At 8:20 pm, (20:20), Burj Park will present to attendees a countdown to Expo 2020 with music, firecrackers and an LED show on the Burj Khalifa.

Even though the concert is free to attend, visitors need to book themselves a space; these tickets will guarantee entry to the venue before 7 pm. Dubai Taxi Corporation (DTC) is also offering a 25 % percent for those looking to get to the concert. The first set of tickets is already sold out, but more tickets will released soon.
