Hi everyone
I am a girl from Iran , i love Nickelback for many years , so that i came to dubai for their show .
It was fantastic , many people attended to the concert and it was actually a rock night!
but the problem was how to find the address becoz there was not a clear address for the concert place , they wrote on the tickets only: Dubai Festival City . and we wondered where to go ? which road ? which street ? and after all we found it by crowding people waited for parking near the Dubai Festival Mall !
any how it was great to see Chad and Ryan on the stage
i love Nickelback.
good 4 u!!!!!i couldnt
hi, is there any tickets left? or can i get a ticket at the concert?
Cant wait For the concert! ;D I just got here from all the way from Kuwait ;D

I’m from kuwait too :p my plane leaves tomorrow to dubai

i’m coming from Tripoli – Libya just for that reason, Nickelback.
see you there.
Hi,, I can offer transportation from abudhabi to the concert place and back . If any body interested email to jameel901@hotmail.com
is there any transportations between the concert place and abu-dhabi so that people who cant drive in the way back might use?
Hi Iris, there isn’t any official transportation from Abu Dhabi that we are aware of, but that doesn’t mean that you couldn’t organize any.
Consider making a facebook group for ppl interested in car pooling, or ASK if anyone is interested on this page. Many people probably would benefit from car pooling too.
Hey, Thanks for your reply
That’s exciting! I’ll consider talking to them soon ;D Thank U again.
Hey, does anyone knows if there are seats in the concert? like not regular standing? I have my friend whose on a wheel chair. And we kinda wanna go together (That if there are any tickets left). Any idea??
Hey Roberta, first there should be tickets left.
Second, unfortunately, it doesn’t seem that there are any seated sections, as the area is divided into General Admission (standing) and Rock Zone (front rows standing):
NICKELBACK 05 Feb GA – Nickelback Feb 5th Regular standing 295 AED
NICKELBACK 05 Feb RZ – Nickelback Feb 5th Rock Zone 460 AED
However, try calling the event promoters to see if there is dedicated space for disabled customers, or if they will make an exception. You can tell them they’ll get positive publicity if they accommodate your request, because we will write about your experience!

please help me and tell me where i must be go to buy ticket for nickelback concert?
my freind in dubai went to dubai mal and festival center to buy ticket but they finished it if there is another place to buy ticket please tell where it is
Hi Alma, tickets are still available and u can buy tickets here:
http://www.ticketingboxoffice.com
you’ll need a credit card for the transaction. Otherwise, have your friend purchase them from this website. Once the order is placed you will get options for delivery. Sometimes, you can buy them from the website and pick them up at the concert. You’ll have to confirm that this is an option on the website.
ya.I agree with u.i hope so…
i tried to get the tickets from boxofficeme.com but they said there are no tickets for my requirement (rock zone pit) even tho its availabile at Virgin Ticketting Box Office O.o , also from where could i collect the tickets from exactly
Yeah, there don’t seem to be any tickets left for the Rock Zone from box office ME.
Tickets for the rock zone are still available at ticketingboxoffice.com
Alternatively, you can call Virgin Megastores at +97143414353 or +97142958599 or +97144370154 to see if them have them in store. That way you can pick them up directly.
I did get the tickets cheers
so happy for you… me i dnt i have any money to buy but ireally wanted to see them live… i maybe the poorest rocker in the world… wish i could be a “ROCKSTAR”
i guest i will do the same routine… to play their song along with my old guitar… on that nyt i will perform…
Mr. Editor,
is their any free ticket? i realy luv to see them but idnt have money to buy a single ticket… i hope u can help… i can do cleaning if you want… or you can get my greatest possesion ..my old guitar.. please..
jo
Mr Jo, I really wish I had not one but several tickets to give you, so you could take all your friends too. But, I don’t for this show. Keep reading, and I hope to offer some for other shows soon.
Meanwhile, gather your friends together on the concert night and play your guitar, while having them sing along all the Nickelback tunes.
ok, i’ll try but is it ok if i arrange ticket to my freinds and thay wll give somethng so i can raise money to buy at least a single ticket?
thank you.
what should I do?my mom doesnt let me come.she cant come with me so I will be alone.but I LOVE THEM!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Hi Shiva, now that’s a dilemma! I suggest you get a few trusted friends together whom you mom knows and then you all can go together. Or get on Facebook and start a group for ppl going to Nickelback, then show your mom how many cool ppl are going! Or, even better, let mom listen to a few of Nickelback’s song’s and then she won’t be able to resist from going with you.
i can play guitar for you…it is not the same as original but it will be entertaining…we have the same faith i think…
i think that i cant come.but i REALLY want to come and see them. it will be great if they play IF TODAY WAS YOUR LAST DAY too.
They probably will, so you SHOULD come!
Can anyone tell me if there’s a ticket outlet in sharjah or ajman for the Nickelback concert this Feb?
Don’t think so, but you could call boxofficeme to purchase tickets and then collect them on the day of the concert or ask them to courier it over to you.
So the cheapest ticket price for the Nickelback’s concert is gonna be around 80 $? I need more info about the expenses, since I’m from Iran I need to know if I can afford it.
so what info do you need to make that assessment?
I don’t know if that’s related to you, but I need to know about the expenses of a two-way ticket(Iran-Dubai), and a hotel to stay in for one night.

Please, what time exactly does the Nickelback concert start?
Hi there MOTO_GRL
The live nation website: http://www.livenation.ae/event/8863/nickelback-tickets still says door open time and show time as TBD so there is no concrete information yet.
From past shows, we would assume that doors would open around 7 and show would start at 9pm.
We’ll update the article as soon as this info is confirmed.
What is status Quo?? cost of ticket is much more affordable.
Status Quo is a British rock band. You can check out their website: http://www.statusquo.co.uk/
any song they will play…
You can expect them to play stuff from their latest album Dark Horse and other classics. So I’d imagine they may play some of the following songs:
How You Remind Me
Someday
Photograph
Something in Your Mouth
Gotta Be Somebody
Burn It to the Ground
If Today Was Your Last Day
any idea what song they gonna play..
