He'll perform at Etihad Arena.

The German film composer, Hans Zimmer, will play hits from Dune to Gladiator in Abu Dhabi.
Hands up if you love the soundtrack to Gladiator, The Lion King or Pirates of the Caribbean. Well, you have the film composer Hans Zimmer to thank for that. We’re excited as the multiple Oscar winner, Hans Zimmer, has announced that he’s coming back to Abu Dhabi, and it’s a rare chance to watch him perform his memorable music live.
Hans Zimmer Live in Abu Dhabi will take place on Friday, 13 November at Etihad Arena. This show, presented by Abu Dhabi Festival, will form part of his The Next Level tour, which also features his 19-piece orchestra. Hans has one of the most impressive back catalogues, and we expect him to perform his famous hits from films such as Dune, Dunkirk, Inception, and Interstellar.
Hans hails from Frankfurt, Germany. Despite disliking formal piano lessons as a child and being thrown out of eight schools, he managed to create a music career. He went from joining a band to composing advertising jingles. Today, he is the head of the film music division at DreamWorks.
The concert in Abu Dhabi will showcase the talents of Hans Zimmer and his band of skilled musicians, which includes Tina Guao on the cello and Pedro Eustache on the winds. Enhancing the ensemble’s performance will be captivating dancers, along with the iconic voices of Lisa Gerard from Gladiator, Lebo M. from The Lion King, and Loire from Dune.
Adding a special touch to the Abu Dhabi performance, Zimmer will celebrate the Emirate’s significant role in the Dune films, with key scenes from Dune, Dune: Part Two and Dune: Part Three having been filmed in Abu Dhabi. This extraordinary connection will make the concert a once-in-a-lifetime experience for fans.
Prior to his performance in Abu Dhabi, Hans had shared: “I am very excited to be performing for the first time in the city where DUNE TWO was filmed and served as the inspiration for the score. This is our last stop of the Hans Zimmer Live tour and we are thrilled to be ending our world tour in Abu Dhabi.”
Tickets for the Hans Zimmer show are available now with prices starting at AED 245 per person.
