You can hire a singer in Abu Dhabi for a wedding, a corporate gala, a majlis evening, a National Day event or a private party. The same team that books singers in Dubai books them in the capital: pop and soul singers, Arabic singers, singer guitarists and opera singers, solo or with a musician. Send the date, the venue and the type of event, and the team sends singers who are free, with videos and a price that includes transport.
Price: a solo singer with backing tracks typically costs AED 4,000 to 8,000 for two 30 minute sets. Events in Abu Dhabi usually add AED 300 to 800 for transport. See singer prices.
Wedding singers in Abu Dhabi
Weddings are the most searched reason to book a singer in Abu Dhabi. The singer can cover your entrance, your first dance and one or two reception sets. For Arabic weddings, a singer can lead the zaffa, the high energy entrance of 10 to 15 minutes, and then sing the reception set later in the evening. Weddings with separate men's and ladies' sections sometimes book one male and one female singer. Read more on the wedding singer page and the Arabic singer page.
Corporate events and galas
Abu Dhabi hosts many government, cultural and corporate events. Khaleeji singers are the usual choice for National Day and government linked events. International audiences at a gala dinner enjoy jazz during dinner and pop after the awards. See corporate event singers.
Private parties
Villa parties, yacht nights and birthday dinners in hotel suites. A singer and guitarist suits a small, relaxed gathering. A singer with backing tracks brings a fuller sound for dancing.
Permits and venues in Abu Dhabi
Any performance outside a private home needs an entertainment permit. In Abu Dhabi this sits with DCT, and hotels may ask for their own approval as well. The team handles it as part of the booking, but it takes a few working days, so book early. Outdoor venues on the water or in gardens may need extra sound and a technician.
How to book
Send the date, the venue in Abu Dhabi, the guest count and the style of music on WhatsApp or through the quote form. Book 3 to 10 days ahead for a normal date and 2 to 4 weeks ahead for Ramadan, Eid and National Day. The quote includes transport from Dubai.
