A love song you can't stop humming, a voice you've grown up with and a night you'll want to be at. Wael Kfoury is performing live at Dubai Opera on Saturday, June 22, and it's set to be a special one. Wael Kfoury 101
Wael is a big deal, if you didn't already know. Since the '90s, he's been at the heart of the Arabic music scene, with a long list of chart-topping tracks and millions of devoted fans across the region. With a career spanning over three decades, Wael has built a reputation as one of the Arab world's most enduring musical legends. From passionate ballads to feel-good hits, his songs are woven into the soundtracks of many lives. Dubbed the 'King of Romance,' he's known for pairing deep lyrics with that deep voice – warm, steady, and full of feeling. His live shows? Always packed. Always electric. The music
From early hits like El Bint El Awiye and Omri Kellou to more recent favourites like Law Hobna Ghalta and Qalbe Meshtaq , Wael's sound blends contemporary Arabic pop with unmistakable classical roots. He's a balladeer at heart – and when he hits those long notes live, it's goosebumps. The event
Whether you've been there from the days of the cassette tape or jumped on board more recently, Wael's music hits deep. Presented by Moments Events, the Lebanese star returns to Dubai for a one-night-only concert inside the city's most iconic venue. Expect a mix of nostalgia, power ballads, and pure charisma.
