Dubai is set to delight K-pop fans as internationally acclaimed artists Chung Ha and SHINee’s Onew prepare to perform at a free live concert at Dubai Festival City. The highly anticipated event is expected to draw large crowds, reflecting the growing popularity of Korean pop music across the Middle East.
The performance forms part of Dubai Festival City’s ongoing entertainment programme, which regularly brings global music stars to the emirate while offering residents and visitors access to world-class shows at no cost. Fans can expect a high-energy atmosphere, polished stage production, and a mix of chart-topping hits and fan-favourite tracks.
Chung Ha, known for her powerful vocals and dynamic dance performances, has built a strong international following through her solo career. Her music blends pop, dance, and electronic influences, earning her recognition well beyond South Korea. Onew, the leader and main vocalist of SHINee, is equally celebrated for his distinctive voice and emotional delivery, both as part of the iconic K-pop group and through his solo work.
Hosting artists of this calibre underscores Dubai’s position as a cultural and entertainment hub that caters to diverse global audiences. Free concerts such as this also highlight the city’s commitment to accessible entertainment, creating shared experiences for fans from different backgrounds.
Organisers have encouraged attendees to arrive early, as high turnout is expected. With K-pop’s global influence continuing to rise, the Dubai Festival City concert promises to be a memorable night, celebrating music, culture, and the strong connection between international artists and their fans in the region.
