The soul-stirring live concert experience celebrates the deep-rooted heritage of Qawwali and Sufi music, and will take place on August 30, 2025, at the Coca-Cola Arena.
One of Pakistan's most popular singers, Ustad Rahat Fateh Ali Khan is known for his mesmerizing voice and global performances. He will be joined by his son Shazaman, marking the beginning of a powerful musical legacy that connects generations. This concert promises to take the audience on a spiritual and emotional journey with a mix of timeless classics and new-age Sufi sounds.
The concert, produced by Elite Esquire Entertainment, is a part of Dubai Summer Surprises and supported by Dubai Calendar, City1016, and Khaleej Times. Gates open at 7 pm and the show starts at 9pm. Early bird tickets start from Dh150 and are available on the official websites of the Coca-Cola Arena and Platinumlist.
Rahat Fateh Ali Khan is the nephew of the musical doyen Nusrat Fateh Ali Khan and is a recognised singer in Hindi cinema as well as the Pakistani film industry.
One of his earlier chartbusters, Aafreen Aafreen, garnered over 300 million views on YouTube and is the first Pakistani song to achieve the milestone. He has appeared in five editions of the popular hit TV show Coke Studio. Some notable movies for which he has lent his voice include the Bollywood hits Jhoom Barabar Jhoom and Om Shanti Om, and the Pakistani productions Ishq Khuda and Bin Roye, among others.
