Rod Stewart Live in the UAE

Sir Rod Stewart, the legendary British rock and pop icon, will perform live in Abu Dhabi at Etihad Arena, Yas Island, on 17 December 2025. With a voice instantly recognisable across generations, Stewart is one of the most celebrated singer-songwriters in music history, with a career that spans over five decades. This exclusive UAE performance marks a rare opportunity for fans to experience the enduring magic of one of the world’s best-selling recording artists, live on stage.

Renowned for his soulful rasp, charismatic stage presence, and anthemic songwriting, Rod Stewart has sold over 250 million records worldwide. His extensive catalogue of hits includes era-defining singles that have topped charts around the globe and solidified his place in the pantheon of music legends. From his breakout success in the late 1960s to his continued influence in the present day, Stewart’s ability to evolve while staying true to his signature style has earned him fans across every generation.

In 2024, Stewart released his 33rd studio album, Swing Fever, a critically acclaimed collaboration with Jools Holland and his Rhythm & Blues Orchestra. That same year, he concluded a tour across Asia and Europe and wrapped his record-setting 13-year Las Vegas residency, Rod Stewart: The Hits, at The Colosseum at Caesars Palace. In 2025, he returns to Las Vegas for a final run of encore shows ahead of his Abu Dhabi performance, where fans can expect a powerful mix of beloved classics, deep cuts, and new material.

Knighted in 2016 for his services to music and charity, Sir Rod Stewart has earned two inductions into the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame, a GRAMMY™ Living Legend Award, the ASCAP Founders Award for songwriting, and has authored a New York Times best-selling autobiography. His impact spans rock, pop, soul, folk, R&B, and the Great American Songbook — making him one of the few artists to have achieved chart-topping success in every decade of his career.

Rod Stewart’s upcoming appearance in Abu Dhabi is set to be a landmark cultural moment, offering fans in the region a chance to witness a true music legend live in concert. With his unmistakable sound, show-stopping energy, and a legacy that continues to grow, Sir Rod Stewart’s 2025 UAE performance is not just a concert — it’s a celebration of one of the greatest musical careers of all time.
