Event entertainment in Abu Dhabi

The same team that plans event entertainment in Dubai plans and runs it in Abu Dhabi, from corporate galas and launches to weddings, majlis gatherings and family days.

We plan and run event entertainment in Abu Dhabi as well as in Dubai: corporate gala dinners, award ceremonies, conferences, product launches and brand activations, VIP receptions, weddings, birthdays, anniversaries, private dinners and majlis gatherings, public events and corporate family days. The team handles every step, from the first consultation and the concept to the logistics and the coordination on site.

Price: corporate event entertainment in Abu Dhabi follows the Dubai ranges, usually AED 3,500 to AED 45,000 depending on the acts, with travel to Abu Dhabi as a modest add on. See what event entertainment costs.

Corporate events in the capital

Corporate events in Abu Dhabi often have international guest lists and formal agendas. Programmes are built the same way as in Dubai: live music for arrivals and dinner, an MC for the agenda, in English or bilingual English and Arabic, and one visual moment. For the details, see corporate event entertainment and gala dinner entertainment.

Weddings and private celebrations

Abu Dhabi weddings range from traditional Emirati celebrations to modern and mixed weddings. Many have separate ladies and men halls, which changes the line up and the price. See wedding entertainment for the running order of the day. We also plan entertainment for birthdays, anniversaries, private dinners, majlis gatherings and celebrations at home.

Public events and festivals

National celebrations, community events and festivals in Abu Dhabi need acts that work on an outdoor stage, in a mall or in a park: interactive, high energy and visible from a distance. Emirati troupes are in high demand around National Day.

Corporate family days

Family days bring adults and children together, so the programme needs acts for all ages: a kids area with its own entertainer, roaming performers and a main stage moment for everyone.

DCT rules and venue approvals

In Abu Dhabi, events fall under DCT rather than the Dubai DET permit. Hotels and private venues usually need only the venue's approval, while public and ticketed events need more. Fire, pyrotechnics and aerial acts need the venue's safety sign off in advance. We check these points with the venue before the acts are confirmed.

Travel and timing

Travel to Abu Dhabi is usually a modest add on rather than a full new quote. Performers arrive in time to set up and sound check before guests come in, and the running order is agreed with your venue in advance.
