Ready to go all the way during the most epic game of the season? It’s officially confirmed – Fat Joe is heading to the capital for the NBA Abu Dhabi Games 2025.
How can I get tickets to Fat Joe at the NBA Abu Dhabi?
As if the opening game of the New York Knicks v the Philadelphia 76ers at Etihad Arena wasn’t exciting enough – Fat Joe at halftime is sure to top up the festive celebrations!
Taking place on Thursday, October 2, you can now get tickets starting from just AED 150. The clash is the first of two preseason matchups between the teams, with the second game set for Saturday, October 4.
The Bronx-born rapper, behind anthems like Lean Back and All the Way Up, will headline the halftime show for Game 1.
The NBA Abu Dhabi Games are part of a four-day basketball and culture takeover. Apart from the action on court, there’s also the NBA District at Manarat Al Saadiyat from October 2 to 5. Keep your eyes peeled for a coffee rave as well – there’s way too much excitement on the agenda!
Concerts and live music are also on the line-up at the games, with artists like the Jordanian star Siilawy, rapper Tul8te, DJ Jack, Stick No Bills and DJ D-Nice performing on Friday, October 3.
Since this is the first performer to be announced, we’re keeping our eyes peeled for another musical guest to be revealed for the second game on Saturday. Last year’s NBA concert was courtesy of 2 Chainz, who performed at the NBA Appreciation Day, also at Etihad Arena.
If you want to upgrade your experience, special ticket packages with premium access, VIP hospitality, and behind-the-scenes perks are available at NBA Abu Dhabi!
Watch this space for more updates, and get your tickets ASAP so you don’t miss the Fat Joe fun!
