A globally acclaimed singer, songwriter and producer, Alicia Keys has shaped contemporary culture for more than two decades. Since the release of her landmark debut album Songs in A Minor, she has sold more than 65 million records worldwide, surpassed five billion streams, and was named the No.1 RIAA-certified female R&B artist of the millennium, with diamond-certified anthems including No One and Empire State of Mind.
For her New Year’s Eve show at Saadiyat Nights, Keys will perform hits from her celebrated repertoire, with the evening framed by live music performances before and after the show, alongside a midnight fireworks display marking the arrival of the new year and creating a memorable countdown moment under the stars.
Adding to the festive atmosphere throughout the evening, guests can also enjoy a curated selection of food and beverage offerings from outlets including Home Bakery Kitchen, Slice 45, Reif Kushiyaki, Junk Burger, ARC by Aptitude, and Grapes and Cheese.
Luxury suites are now available for the New Year’s Eve concert, offering an elevated hospitality experience priced at AED 4,995 per person. The Alicia Keys Suite Experience includes catering by Emirates Palace Mandarin Oriental, access to a dedicated suite bar with beverages available for purchase, personalised waiter service, and dedicated parking.
Keys’ return to Saadiyat Nights follows her sold-out performance last season and forms part of the 2025-2026 programme, reinforcing the series’ position as a flagship live entertainment experience within Abu Dhabi’s cultural calendar.
