Metal band Sepultura return to Dubai

Brazilian heavy metal band Sepultura will return to Dubai on December 13, more than a decade since their last appearance in the city at the now-defunct Dubai Desert Rock Festival in 2005.

The group, which has been around since 1984, will this time perform a more intimate indoors show at Hard Rock Cafe. They released their 14th and latest album, Machine Messiah, earlier this year.

UAE-based metal band Svengali will open the show.

Tickets range from Dh200 (general admission) to Dh550 (including a meet-and-greet and photograph with the band), available online.
