More Abu Dhabi concerts have been cancelled
The Corrs’ cancellation follows two other major Abu Dhabi music cancellations announced this week.

The festival had been scheduled for 21 November at Etihad Park on Yas Island after being moved from its original April date. Shakira, the Jonas Brothers, Ne-Yo and Biffy Clyro had been announced as headliners.
OFFLIMITS organisers said the festival would return to Abu Dhabi in 2027, although no date or lineup has been announced.
