Tickets go on sale for New Year bash on QE2 in Dubai

Sale of limited number of tickets for an exclusive and high-profile New Year party on ultra-luxury ship Queen Elizabeth 2 (QE2) in Dubai has begun, sources told Emirates 24l7.

Ticket – which went on sale on Sunday night – has been priced at Dh3,000 and can be bought online.

The ultra-luxury ship will remain anchored during the party, said a spokesperson of Dubai World – the owner of QE2. This is the first time she has been opened to the public for such an event. The ship is docked in Dubai since it was by Dubai World’s subsidiary Nakheel few years ago for £50 million.

However, sources refused to reveal the numbers of tickets to be sold for the “Invitation only” New Year party which will feature around 1,000 people including VIPs, Royals and foreign and local dignitaries, a Dubai World spokesperson told Emirates 24l7 earlier.

"For a limited number of guests, the QE2 black tie event is being designed as one of the most exclusive New Year celebrations in the world. However, a limited number of exclusive tickets will go on sale this week to the general public. A percentage of proceeds from ticket sales will be passed on to a local charity," said the press statement.

From gourmet food, captivating entertainers, magnificent laser and firework displays, an exceptional line up of international acts (including The Gypsies, Drury Lane, and many more), to royals, dignitaries, celebrities and VIPs, the event aims to treat guests to a unique, luxurious experience and the most stylish way to ring in the New Year of 2012.
