Abu Dhabi, 25th August 2010: FLASH Entertainment, the region’s premier live events company, announces today that Tiësto will bring his record breaking Kaleidoscope World Tour to Abu Dhabi National Exhibition Centre (ADNEC) on Friday 1st October 2010.
Fresh from Ibiza and London and on his way to Miami, Tiësto will set Abu Dhabi alight with his unforgettable live show, the biggest DJ-only tour in history which will be seen by over 1,000,000 music lovers over 14 months. Inspired by U2’s spectacular stadium concerts, the Kaleidoscope World Tour has been exciting the senses of clubbers across the globe with lasers, light shows and giant LED screens, plus some of the biggest tracks of the summer played on one of the world’s most powerful sound systems.
