Presented by Live Nation Middle East, this was Mary J’s long-awaited return to the stage in the UAE.
Sure, she made waves with a surprise appearance at Brooklyn Chop House during the Abu Dhabi Grand Prix last year. She was set to own the stage but now we’ll have to wait a little longer.
Concert season is heating up
Mary J. may be out, but the UAE’s concert calendar is still stacked.
- Jennifer Lopez – 29 July, Etihad Arena
- Lil Baby – 18 October
- Enrique Iglesias – 1 November
- Katy Perry – 7 December
So, maybe hold off on clearing your calendar. Save the outfit for later. Mary J. Blige won’t be bringing her Family Affair to Dubai just yet—but here’s hoping we won’t have to wait too long.
