WOW-ABUDHABI

Abu Dhabi, are you ready to get strange and unusual? Say “Beetlejuice” three times and prepare for a night of wicked fun as BEETLEJUICE THE MUSICAL haunts Yas Island from 20–30 November 2025 at Etihad Arena!

Following blockbuster hits like The Lion King and Hamilton, this hilariously twisted Broadway smash is set to shake up the capital with ghostly gags, killer tunes, outrageous set design, and one seriously sarcastic demon in stripes.

👻 Based on Tim Burton’s cult classic, the musical follows teen Lydia Deetz as she navigates a haunted house, a deceased couple, and everyone’s favorite chaotic poltergeist. It’s a wild rollercoaster of exorcisms, girl scouts, family feels, and afterlife absurdity — all wrapped in a toe-tapping, laugh-out-loud musical comedy!

🗓 Dates: 20–30 November 2025
📍 Venue: Etihad Arena, Yas Island
🎟 Tickets: Early bird prices from AED 99 – Public sale starts 8 May

✨ Directed by Tony Award-winner Alex Timbers (Moulin Rouge!), with showstopping design, music by Eddie Perfect, and a top-tier creative team — this is not your average haunting.

💬 “Outrageously full of life and humor,” says Proactiv Entertainment. It’s a musical, a comedy, a ghost story — and an experience like no other in the region.

👀 So, Abu Dhabi… you ready to get weird?
