Fresh from her triumphant show at the Super Bowl at the weekend, superstar Madonna has confirmed she will play Yas Island Abu Dhabi later this year.

The world’s top selling female recording artist will take the stage at the luxury destination on June 3rd as part of the Yas Island Show Weekends.

The event will form part of a world-tour to support her latest album, MDNA.

Everybody from die-hard Madonna fans to music lovers and concert-goers of all generations are expected to attend the pop extravaganza.

“Extremely high profile concerts of this nature do much to spread awareness of Abu Dhabi’s tourism offering and the city’s emergence as an international entertainment destination,” says Faisal Al Sheikh, events manager at Abu Dhabi Tourism Authority.

“Headline concerts have proved their worth in delivering an increasing number of guests to Abu Dhabi’s hotels and this show, coming as it does in a traditionally slow month will be welcomed by all in the UAE capital’s hospitality sector.”

As one of the most captivating cities in the Middle East, Abu Dhabi continues to attract millions each year who come to enjoy the city’s cultural diversity, world-class leisure and entertainment facilities, stunning beaches and cosmopolitan lifestyle.

Ticket prices start at 350AED and will go on sale at the end of February.
