Russian Georgian star Valery Meladze brings his anniversary tour to Dubai this November, turning one night at The Agenda into a showcase of soulful pop and polished live performance. The concert takes place at The Agenda in Dubai Media City, one of the city’s most modern indoor arenas for large scale shows. On Sunday 30 November 2025, doors open at 7:00 PM and the show starts at 8:00 PM, giving fans plenty of time to settle into their seats before the first chords hit. Organisers present the evening as part of his thirty year career celebration and sixtieth birthday tour, so the tone combines nostalgia with fresh energy on stage. This show looks set to be one of the standout indoor concerts of Dubai’s late 2025 season (suitable for adults and couples).
Anniversary tour highlights and expected setlist
Meladze’s current run of dates celebrates three decades of hits, and Dubai sits right in the middle of his wider jubilee schedule across Europe and the region. During this tour he usually leans on the big anthems that built his reputation, including favourites such as “Kak ty krasiva segodnya”, “Sera” and “Tekila lyubov”, alongside more recent material. Additionally, audiences can expect a live band, rich backing vocals and arrangements that push his trademark romantic style into a more expansive, arena friendly sound. Many fans travel from other Gulf cities specifically to hear these songs in a full length, dedicated show rather than a festival appearance. Expect a mix of radio hits, deep cuts and extended sing along moments throughout the night (suitable for long time fans, Russian speakers and anyone who enjoys melodic pop).
Timings, tickets and age guidelines at The Agenda
The Dubai concert is scheduled for Sunday 30 November 2025 at The Agenda, with doors at 7:00 PM and the show scheduled to begin at 8:00 PM; listings suggest the programme runs into late evening, roughly until 11:00 PM. Several ticketing platforms describe a concert duration of about two hours with no formal intermission, so it makes sense to arrive well fed and ready for a continuous performance. Tickets originally started from approximately 400 AED for standard seating, with higher brackets for premium and VIP spots closer to the stage or with lounge access, and many primary allocations already show as sold out. Most listings also frame the show as a 21 plus event, which means guests under twenty one may not be admitted even with guardians, so families should treat the programme as adult focused entertainment. Plan to arrive by around 6:30 PM to manage security checks, ticket scans and any last minute queues without stress (suitable for adults, couples and groups of friends).
What concertgoers can expect inside The Agenda
The Agenda is a purpose built performance venue in Dubai Media City with a flexible auditorium that can hold up to around five thousand people, depending on configuration. The main hall includes standing floor space, tiered seating and VIP suites, while modern sound and lighting systems help support a full scale pop production without overwhelming the room. Additionally, the venue sits on Abdullah Omran Taryam Street at the corner of Al Jaddi Street in Dubai Media City, placing it close to several hotels and office towers that fill quickly on event nights. Underground parking on site, along with additional surface and nearby lots, supports hundreds of cars, yet spaces do fill up quickly during popular concerts. Expect a compact but high impact arena feel where the performer never feels too far from the crowd (suitable for adults, older teens and experienced concertgoers).
Getting to The Agenda from Dubai and other Emirates
From within Dubai, many concertgoers choose the metro and taxi combination, riding the Red Line to Dubai Internet City Metro Station and then taking a short taxi ride or brisk walk to The Agenda entrance. Alternatively, drivers who come from southern neighbourhoods like Marina, JBR or Palm Jumeirah often follow Al Sufouh Road and then turn into Dubai Media City, watching for signs to The Agenda and its car parks. For visitors arriving from Sharjah, an early afternoon departure along Sheikh Zayed Road or the parallel routes can reduce rush hour congestion, especially on a Sunday when traffic can build around Media City and Barsha Heights. Similarly, guests driving from Abu Dhabi usually allow at least one hour and forty five minutes door to door, then add buffer time for finding parking and joining security lines. Aim to reach the area by about 6:00 PM if you are travelling from other Emirates, so you can park calmly and enjoy a relaxed pre show atmosphere (suitable for drivers from Abu Dhabi, Sharjah and other northern Emirates).
Traffic, weather and practical tips for concert night
Across the weekend leading into the show, from Friday 28 November through Sunday 30 November, forecasts point to hazy sunshine in Dubai with daytime highs around 29 degrees Celsius and cooler evenings near 20 degrees, with no significant rain expected. Inside The Agenda, air conditioning can feel strong during packed events, so light layers work best, pairing breathable shirts with a thin jacket or shawl that you can easily remove. Traffic around Dubai Media City usually peaks between 5:30 PM and 7:30 PM on work nights, so using the metro for part of the journey or arranging shared rides can save time and parking stress. According to recent guidance often shared by the editor of www.few.ae, fans heading to Media City shows also benefit from building in extra minutes to navigate multi level parking and short walks from the car parks to the entrances. Public transport remains a solid option if you combine the metro with taxis, especially for solo visitors who prefer to avoid late night driving after a long concert. Ticket prices and on the door policies sometimes change closer to the date, so treat all figures as approximately and reconfirm details with your chosen ticket provider when you purchase. Make sure you secure your tickets and plan your route well in advance to enjoy Meladze’s Dubai concert night without last minute surprises (suitable for adults, couples, small groups and dedicated fans).
