The concert is scheduled to take place at the Coca-Cola Arena in October.
One of the most influential names in modern rap is finally heading to the city. Grammy Award-winning artist Lil Baby will make his long-awaited Dubai debut with a headline performance at Coca-Cola Arena on Friday, 18 October 2025.
Hailing from Atlanta, Lil Baby has reshaped the sound of contemporary rap. He exploded onto the global stage in 2018 with Harder Than Hard, before dominating charts with hits like the diamond-certified Drip Too Hard and the Grammy-nominated The Bigger Picture. His 2020 album My Turn became the best-selling album in the U.S. that year, surpassing even Taylor Swift, and was recently named the No. 1 rap album of the 21st century.
With over 75 billion streams, 90+ RIAA certifications, and more than 150 Billboard Hot 100 entries, he recently won a Grammy for his collaboration on Hurricane with Kanye West and The Weeknd. Plus, he was named Artist of the Year at the 2020 Apple Music Awards.
The upcoming tour supports Lil Baby’s fourth studio album, WHAM [Who Hard As Me]. The album debuted at number one on the Billboard 200, proving his momentum is far from slowing down.
Beyond the mic, Lil Baby is a rising mogul, helming his own label, Glass Window Entertainment, and shaping the next generation of hip-hop.
Having made hits with DJ Khaled, Drake, Future, Megan Thee Stallion, Nicki Minaj and Travis Scott, revellers can expect a high-octane performance and a hit-packed setlist when Lil Baby brings his show to Dubai’s biggest stage this October.
