Pop superstar Katy Perry is heading to Dubai to ring in 2027 in style. The Grammy-nominated singer will headline the New Year’s Eve celebrations at Atlantis The Palm on December 31, 2026.
The star-studded evening will bring together live music, luxury dining and a spectacular midnight fireworks display. Meanwhile, Perry will perform outdoors under the stars and entertain guests with some of her biggest global hits.
Katy Perry Brings Her Biggest Hits to Dubai
Fans can look forward to several of Perry’s most popular songs. Her performance is expected to include hits such as “Firework,” “Roar,” “Dark Horse” and “Last Friday Night.”
Interestingly, “Firework” could become one of the biggest moments of the night. The song is set to lead into the resort’s midnight fireworks show, which will stretch across the skyline between Atlantis The Palm and Atlantis The Royal.
