Lady Gaga Dubai show: Organisers hope concert-goers to fill venue

The queen of pop music, Lady Gaga, is all set to reign over Dubai on September 10.

With just 6 days to go, 11 out of 16 concert stands have yet to sell out, according to the ‘seat map’ on the ticket sales site.

The organisers expect ‘thousands of last minute concert-goers’ to fill the venue and make it a sold-out show on the final day.

The upcoming Lady Gaga’s ArtRave: The Artpop Ball Tour in Dubai is one of the most talked about, as it marks her first visit to the UAE.

But the show is not yet a sell-out.

As the show makes its way to Dubai’s Meydan Racecourse on September 10, the organisers expect thousands of last minute concert-goers to fill up the seats.

“Tickets are selling well and we expect Gaga fans and last minute Dubai concert-goers will be at Meydan in their thousands to see this once in a lifetime show by one of the world's most iconic pop artists,” a spokesperson for the organisers told Emirates247.

"Lady Gaga is looking forward to performing for the first time to her fans from Dubai and those travelling from around the region at Meydan on September 10th. We have seen the show already in California and it's hit after hit art pop brilliance - not to be missed!, the spokesperson added.

According to the above seat-map on the ticket sales site, the areas marked in grey have been sold out. These number 5.

The larger seating areas marked in light blue are currently available, including the Golden Circle which faces the stage. These number 11.

Tickets start from Dh495 for general admission while VIP tables and suites passes start from Dh2,000 from www.ticketmaster.ae and www.ladygaga.ae.

The American singer (born Stefani Joanne Angelina Germanotta) is known for her music and her outrageous, attention-grabbing shows as well as her avant-garde style of dressing. All of which her fans, or ‘Little Monsters’ as she lovingly calls them, are anticipating at her upcoming gig next week.

Jacqueline Peterson of Live Nation, says “We are all looking forward to a great show.”
