Travis Scott in Abu Dhabi: Tickets, date, location for Circus Maximus World Tour
Scott has performed twice in Abu Dhabi, in 2016 and in 2023.
Circus Maximus, launched in 2023 to support Scott's fourth studio album Utopia, is now the highest-grossing solo rap tour of all time, raking in more than $209.3 million with an attendance of 1.7 million.
The Abu Dhabi stop is part of a limited global run spanning six countries along with the UAE – India (Delhi and Mumbai), Japan (Tokyo), South Korea (Seoul), China (Sanya and Hainan) and South Africa (Johannesburg).
The tour originally kicked off in October 2023 and has included 76 sold-out stops across North America, Europe, the UK, Latin America, Australia and New Zealand. A scheduled show at the Pyramids of Giza in Egypt, was cancelled by organisers in 2023 citing 'complex production issues'. The tour also made a stop in Qatar in May.
The Circus Maximus tour is Scott's first in six years following his Astroworld - Wish You Were Here Tour, which concluded in 2019.
Visually, the Circus Maximus World Tour resembles a haunted theme park, complete with flying heads and explosive pyrotechnics. The set list features standout tracks from Utopia, including Hyaena, Sirens and Fe!n, alongside fan favourites such as Sicko Mode and Butterfly Effect.
A multiple Grammy-nominated rapper, Scott is also a pop culture heavyweight, his fashion and shoe collaborations selling out regularly in minutes and later sold for thousands of dollars by resellers. He also founded the label Cactus Jack Records in 2017.
Utopia, was one of the biggest-selling hip-hop releases of 2023, and was No 1 on Billboard 200 for four weeks running, garnering more than 50 billion streams globally.
Pre-sale registration for the Circus Maximus World Tour stop in Abu Dhabi will begin on Live Nation Middle East's website on Thursday, July 17 at noon, with general ticket sales opening on Friday, July 18 at noon.

Watch: Sheikh Mohammed visits Mall of the Emirates, spotted in Dubai supermarket
Hitting the mall this weekend? You might just spot the Ruler of Dubai, just like these residents. Sheikh Mohammed bin Rashid Al Maktoum, Vice-President and Prime Minister of UAE and Ruler of Dubai, has been visiting different parts of the emirate all week, surprising residents who catch a glimpse of him. Earlier, he was seen taking photographs with children and having warm conversations with residents while stepping out of a cafe in Dubai Mall. Not just that, the Ruler was also seen walking down the streets of the souk in Deira, despite the sweltering heat. This time, however, residents saw the leader walking past them in the aisles of Mall of the Emirates. On seeing him, one woman even shouted, "We love you!", a clear sign of how cherished he is by those who live here. Dressed sharply as always, the Ruler of Dubai walked with staff, a cane in hand. As with his other appearances this week, he was without armed guards, moving casually which is a striking contrast to many global leaders. Watch the video of him in the mall, below: Later, during the same mall visit, he was seen walking inside a supermarket, which appears to be a Carrefour. People could be seen stepping aside and taking photographs as they saw him pass by. Watch the video of him in the supermarket below: Earlier this week, he also travelled by the Dubai Tram, taking commuters by surprise. Many even pulled out their phones to capture the memorable moment. From malls and souks to trams and supermarkets, Sheikh Mohammed's presence this week has been a reminder of his deep connection with the people of Dubai. His spontaneous outings continue to inspire admiration, not just for his leadership, but for the humility and humanity he brings to it.

Madame Tussauds to unveil 13 Taylor Swift wax figures worldwide
Taylor Swift will be honored with 13 wax figures at Madame Tussauds museums around the world. Thirteen of the museum's 22 global branches will each receive a statue of the American pop star, in what Madame Tussauds described as its most ambitious project. The number was chosen as a tribute to Swift's longtime lucky number, 13. 'This is the most ambitious project in Madame Tussauds' 250-year history, which only feels right to reflect the stratospheric status of Taylor Swift,' said Danielle Cullen, the museum's senior figure stylist. The wax figures are based on the singer's various looks from her Eras Tour, which ran from 2023 to 2024 and became the highest-grossing concert tour in history. The tour held 149 shows and earned more than US$2 billion (₱114 billion). Over 40 artists worked for more than a year to complete the sculptures. Swift is a 14-time Grammy winner and one of the most recognized musicians globally.
