Adam Lambert is coming to Dubai. The singer has just been added to the RedFestDXB line-up, and will join 50 Cent, Rita Ora, Eva Simons and MistaJam at the two-day music festival on February 11-12 at the Dubai Media City Amphitheatre.

Lambert, who recently released his third album, The Original High, first stepped into the spotlight in 2009 when he became a finalist on the eighth season of American Idol. His vocal range, along with his unique style, made him a standout contestant and he quickly won over millions of viewers.

After the season wrapped up, Lambert released his successful debut, For Your Entertainment, which has sold nearly 2 million copies worldwide and featured the Grammy-nominated radio smash, Whataya Want From Me. In June of 2010, Lambert embarked on his first headlining tour playing to sold out crowds in the US, Europe and Asia.

He’s also toured with iconic rock band Queen as the lead vocalist, taking the place of the late legendary singer Freddie Mercury on stage.

Tickets to the music festival have not gone on sale, but fans can preregister at redfestdxb.com.
