First mentioned by our team at What’s On Dubai.
Alicia Keys is bringing her powerhouse vocals and unmistakable energy to Abu Dhabi this New Year’s Eve, closing out 2025 with a dazzling performance at Saadiyat Nights on December 31.
The 14-time Grammy Award winner is set to transform Saadiyat Island into an unforgettable celebration, delivering the timeless hits fans know by heart, from If I Ain’t Got You to No One and beyond. Whether you’ve sung along in the car, the shower, or on a karaoke stage, her music has a way of pulling everyone into the moment.
Known for her effortless presence, Keys moves between piano and spotlight with a warmth and confidence that fills any venue she steps into. Her voice, rich, soulful, and instantly recognisable, has shaped some of the most defining songs in modern pop and R&B. Closing the year with her on stage feels like the perfect way to step into 2026.
Saadiyat Nights has welcomed global icons before, but Alicia Keys’ New Year’s Eve show brings a special kind of magic. Expect a night that blends celebration, soul, and that signature Alicia glow, the kind that makes the whole place feel electric.
If you’re looking to start 2026 on a high, this is the place to be.
