This New Year's Eve Abu Dhabi extravaganza on Yas Island
Abu Dhabi - Egypt Today

THE CURTAIN WILL have just come down on another brilliant Formula One show and, once again, the du Arena will be opening its doors for another gold-standard concert. This New Year's Eve Abu Dhabi extravaganza on Yas Island will star none-other than Katy Perry. That's right, the Firework singer is returning to the UAE to see in 2018 in style. Katy released her fourth studio album, Witness, this year and, as we all know, it debuted at number one in America. The lead single, Chained To The Rhythm, set the record for the biggest first day Spotify streams by a female artist, and is now certified platinum, with over one billion streams worldwide. We're sure she's going to be pumping out hits from this record, but why else should you celebrate the occasion on Sunday, December 31 with the star? Here are a few bits and pieces to whet your appetite.
What the UAE has to say about the show: Are you 'Perry' excited?
Alistair Rego
For sure! I'd love to see what she's like on stage after watching her movie-like videos - needless to say that's what I enjoy the most besides her catchy tunes. I'll be back from my holidays on the 31st and a concert with 'fireworks' sounds about right and I'll be ready to 'roar' with the rest of the crowd.
Ankita Pinto
Yes and yes. I like Katy Perry's songs because they are extremely powerful. Her videos are extremely creative and ahead of their time. The power in her voice totally gets my attention.
Gabrielle Reese
Yes, I'm very excited and hope my mummy will take me for the concert. She has an amazing voice and my favourite songs are Roar, California Gurls and Firework. I love her makeup and costumes in her videos.
Lucario Quinny
Katy Perry has her own distinctive music style. She is one of the few female artists to have mashups of pop, rock and disco. She has collaborated with many other artists like Calvin Harris, Pharrell and Snoop Dogg. In her songs she mainly describes everyday life, relationships and self reflection. She is one of the most successful women in the world.
Topping the charts
After Katy's breakthrough debut in 2008 with One of the Boys, she secured her global star status with Teenage Dream in 2010.
With singles including Roar, Firework and Dark Horse, each surpassing the 10 million threshold in both sales and streams, Katy is the only artist to earn three RIAA Digital Single Diamond Awards. She is also the most-followed person globally on Twitter with over 100 million followers.
