Dubai: Tickets to bring in the New Year with Grammy Award-winner Rihanna will go on sale from Tuesday.

With prices starting from Dh395, the tickets have been released to coincide with the launch of the singer’s new album Rated R, released on Monday.

Having already confirmed, cancelled and re-confirmed a gig in the UAE, it is expected the tickets to see this highly-anticipated concert will sell out in record time. Organisers are urging fans to “get in early” to avoid disappointment.

But Rihanna fans better start saving up the dirhams with the cheapest ticket priced at Dh395. For those looking for the full VIP treatment, organisers Flash, have put together a top level package inclusive of free drinks and food as well as access to a specially erected VIP platform, priced at Dh1,695. A minimum of two tickets must be ordered for this option.

All tickets will include access to the La Rumba after-party zone which will play host to an exclusive ensemble of internationally-renowned DJs including DJ Green Lantern, renowned for his tour with Eminem and Jay-Z.

Tickets can be purchased online at www.boxofficeme.com and www.ticketingboxoffice.com from Tuesday and from Virgin Megastores at a date to be announced later.
