The GRAMMY-winning soul singer is bringing her signature sound to the city for one night only this August.


The UAE’s live music scene continues its meteoric rise, and this summer, it’s adding another major name to its already star-studded lineup. Macy Gray will perform live in Dubai at Coca-Cola Arena on Friday, 29 August 2025. The concert from the unmistakable voice behind the early 2000s anthem “I Try” marks her highly anticipated debut in the UAE.

The one-night-only concert will celebrate the 25th anniversary of Gray’s breakthrough album, On How Life Is, a release that catapulted the Ohio-born artist into global stardom. With its soulful sound and raw emotion, the album quickly went triple platinum and earned Gray her first Grammy Award. Expect a nostalgic tribute to that era, featuring live renditions of timeless hits, including “Still,” “Why Didn’t You Call Me,” “Sweet Baby,” and “Beauty in the World.”

More than two decades since her rise to fame, Gray remains a genre-defying powerhouse, renowned for her ability to seamlessly blend soul, jazz, funk, and rock. With over 25 million albums sold, five Grammy nominations, and an instantly recognisable raspy tone, she continues to draw devoted fans around the world.

Whether you’re a longtime fan or discovering her music anew, Macy Gray live in Dubai promises to be a night of raw soul, and undeniable stage presence. The atmosphere is expected to be electric as Coca-Cola Arena transforms into a haven of feel-good nostalgia and timeless talent.

Tickets to see Macy Gray live in Dubai are now on sale, starting at AED 99 and ranging up to AED 599, depending on your vibe.
