Dubai’s live music week heats up as LANY Soft World Tour arrives at Coca-Cola Arena in City Walk, Dubai on Friday, 23 January 2026, with the show listed at 20:00. For quick help, contact Coca-Cola Arena Ticket Hotline 800 22 33 88 or email boxoffice@coca-cola-arena.com, especially if you need seating guidance or ticket support. The concert is presented by Live Nation Middle East, and it’s built for a big-arena atmosphere with strong visuals and singalong moments (couples, solo, groups).
Key timings and the easiest arrival window
The main showtime is set for 20:00 on Friday, 23 January 2026, so you can plan dinner and transport around a clean start. However, doors timing can vary by event, so check your ticket details and aim to arrive early enough to avoid queue pressure. If you want the calmest entry, arrive well before peak flow, because City Walk traffic often thickens as the evening crowds converge. A relaxed entry usually starts with arriving early, not rushing at 19:55 (couples, solo).
Who LANY are and why this tour sells well
LANY’s sound sits in that sweet spot where modern pop feels cinematic, yet it still stays personal. Frontman Paul Klein carries the emotional tone, and the band’s live delivery often turns familiar hooks into full-room moments. Meanwhile, the setlist typically blends fan favourites with newer material, so it feels current without losing the nostalgia that drew many listeners in. If you love melodies that linger after the chorus, you’ll hear that signature throughout the night. Expect a concert that leans into atmosphere as much as hits (couples, solo).
Tickets and entry choices that suit your style
Ticket prices are listed from approximately AED 150, and higher categories can rise depending on seat location and demand. For the most reliable buying options, use TICKETMASTER UAE, PLATINUMLIST, LIVE NATION MIDDLE EAST, or the COCA-COLA ARENA BOX OFFICE via the hotline, because those channels align with official event listings. If you prefer to move freely and stay close to the energy, you might consider General Admission, yet the arena’s age rules can affect that choice. Treat all ticket prices as approximately, because fees and availability can change near show week (couples, solo, groups).
Age guidance and simple entry rules to remember
Coca-Cola Arena lists that any patron under 16 must attend with an adult or parent aged 21 or over, so families should plan seats and arrival together. It also notes that guests under 14 are not permitted in the General Admission standing floor area, which means many younger fans need seated tickets instead. Additionally, all patrons, including children above 12 months, require a valid ticket, so don’t assume lap entry will work. Bring valid ID and keep your ticket ready, because smoother checks keep your night stress-free (families with teens, couples, solo).
Getting there in Dubai and from nearby Emirates
Coca-Cola Arena sits in City Walk, and it’s easy to reach by car from Sheikh Zayed Road if you allow extra time around evening peak. If you come from Abu Dhabi, leave earlier than usual, because the final stretch into central Dubai can slow, and then City Walk access roads may tighten closer to showtime. If you come from Sharjah, build a buffer too, since early evening congestion can stack quickly on major routes. For public transport, the arena commonly recommends the Red Line Metro with a transfer to a short taxi ride from Dubai Mall or Burj Khalifa station, which can feel simpler than parking on busy nights. If you hate parking uncertainty, choose Metro plus taxi and arrive with a time cushion (solo, couples).
A smooth pre-show plan inside City Walk
City Walk works well when you keep your plan compact, so you don’t bounce across the city before doors. Many fans arrive early, grab something nearby, and then walk straight into the arena area without rushing. If you want time for merch and photos, arriving earlier helps, because the crowd often surges closer to showtime. Also, if you plan to meet friends, set a clear landmark inside City Walk, since mobile networks can feel slow when the area fills. Keep your pre-show plan close to the arena and your night feels easier (couples, solo, groups).
A calm night-of briefing for weather and logistics
Dubai’s forecast for Friday, 23 January 2026 points to hazy sunshine, with temperatures around 25°C and a cooler night near 16°C, so light layers make sense, especially with strong indoor air-conditioning. Traffic around City Walk and nearby arterial roads can rise from early evening, so you’ll feel better if you arrive earlier and avoid last-minute entry. If you drive, expect busier parking conditions near showtime, while Metro plus taxi can reduce the pressure on peak nights. Ticket and door prices may change and remain approximately, so secure your entry through TICKETMASTER UAE, PLATINUMLIST, LIVE NATION MIDDLE EAST, or the COCA-COLA ARENA BOX OFFICE, and keep the hotline 800 22 33 88 saved. Arrive early and lock your tickets before the rush. In the same practical spirit that local listings use, the editor at www.few.ae frames this show as one of the cleanest Friday night plans for pop fans who want both emotion and scale.
