Dubai is a city where luxury lives next to culture, where skyscrapers paint the sky, and where unforgettable experiences happen every single day.
A City That Knows How to Make an Entrance
Dubai is not just a city, it’s a stage. A vibrant platform where icons are made, discovered, and celebrated.
Whether it’s in the heart of Downtown, on the sun-soaked beaches of Jumeirah Beach Residence, or under the lights of the Dubai Opera, Dubai brings people together in ways only a global city can.
As the city’s heartbeat grows stronger with every beat of music, every ride in a Hala Taxi, and every step through its diverse streets, we find ourselves not just moving through Dubai but becoming part of its story.
This summer, two global icons are taking center stage here, reminding us once again why Dubai is unique and far ahead of any other city in the world.
Guns N’ Roses: A Concert to Remember
They came, they rocked, and they made history. Guns N’ Roses didn’t just play a concert in the UAE, they created a moment. On 1st June 2023, the legendary rock band performed live at the Etihad Arena in Abu Dhabi, and the atmosphere was electric.
Rock music fans across the Emirates flocked to Yas Island, reliving the magic of Slash’s guitar solos and Axl Rose’s raw vocals.
For many, it was a full-circle moment, watching legends that defined a generation, now lighting up the stage in the Middle East’s entertainment capital.
Hala played a silent but proud role, our captains got fans to Etihad Arena on time with full excitement, and made sure the only thing they had to think about was how to enjoy their experience to the fullest.
And guess what?
The legends are returning. Guns N’ Roses will be performing live again at Etihad Arena on May 27th, and it promises to be another memorable night of rock ‘n’ roll in the UAE.
Hala is ready to get you there, because epic nights deserve effortless rides.
Book early, beat the crowd, and rock on.
Wael Kfoury Live at Dubai Opera: A Night of Romance and Reverie
When it comes to timeless voices and unforgettable melodies, few can stir hearts like Wael Kfoury. Often dubbed the “King of Romance,” the Lebanese superstar is returning to Dubai for a special performance at Dubai Opera on June 22, 2025.
Known for hits like Kelna Mnenjar, Tabki El Talamiz, and Bahebak Ana Ktir, Kfoury’s music has defined love stories across the Arab world for over two decades. His concerts are more than musical showcases, they are intimate experiences wrapped in nostalgia, elegance, and raw emotion.
Dubai Opera, with its stunning architecture and acoustics, is the perfect backdrop for a performance this personal.
Whether you are a lifelong fan or discovering his voice for the first time, this is a night that promises to linger long after the final encore.
And if you’re planning a special evening out, let the journey be just as smooth as the music.
Getting to Dubai Opera is easy when you’re riding with convenience, no stress, no hassle, just a comfortable Hala Ride for a night to remember.
More than Concerts: Dubai’s Icons Go Beyond the Stage
It’s easy to think of icons as the faces on billboards or the names in bright lights.
But in Dubai, they are everywhere. They are your entrepreneurial neighbors who just opened their first cafe. The delivery guy who remembers your name. The captain who gets you home safely after a long day.
It’s the people who make this city feel alive, connected, and full of possibility.
At Hala, we believe every ride tells a story. Perhaps, it’s your first visit to the city or your 25th ride to the Marina. Maybe it’s a ride to your dream concert, or just home after a long day. Whatever the journey, it matters.
We have had the privilege of seeing everyday icons shine, like Nikhil Ghatkar, a dedicated Hala Captain who completed over 1200 rides in a single quarter.
That’s what makes Dubai and Hala Ride special. It’s the people behind the places and the real stars behind the scenes.
Getting to Dubai’s Icons, Effortlessly
On big nights like Wael Kfoury’s live performance at Dubai Opera or the return of Guns N’ Roses at the Etihad Arena, the city feels electric. And Hala strives to capture and make fans’ moments special, effortless, and iconic.
When you visit the icons of Dubai, whether it’s a stadium filled with music or a quiet corner of the city, you’re part of something bigger. Part of a rhythm, a story, a shared beat that defines life here.
So wherever you’re going, however you’re getting there, book a Hala Ride and take a moment to enjoy the ride.
