Refunds, Rebooking and How to Stay Updated

Original tickets are valid for a replacement date only where the organiser or seller confirms this. Refunds for cancellations are processed via the original ticketing platform (Platinumlist, Coca-Cola Arena box office, or Dubai Opera’s site).

For postponed events with TBD dates, refund windows depend on the organiser and ticketing platform — contact your point of purchase promptly, as you may not need to wait for a new date.

Before heading to any rescheduled event, check your flight status on the Wego flight tracker and confirm your hotel booking through hotels in Dubai.

For the latest on active events, the Visit Dubai events calendar is updated continuously with venue confirmations.

Frequently Asked Questions

Will my existing ticket work for the new date?

Only if the organiser or ticket seller confirms this for your event. A new listing does not by itself establish that an older ticket remains valid.

Can I get a refund if I can no longer attend?

Refunds must be requested through your original ticket seller. Refund windows vary by platform — check the specific terms of Platinumlist, Coca-Cola Arena, or Dubai Opera at the time of your request.

Are any Dubai events still going ahead as planned?

Yes — Coca-Cola Arena lists Jasmine Sandlas on 13 September and Radhika Das on 20 September 2026. See the Visit Dubai events calendar for the latest confirmed line-up.

Is it safe to travel to Dubai for events right now?

An event taking place does not establish that travel is safe. Australia’s 2 September advice remains to reconsider travel to the UAE and warns that airspace may close at short notice. KLM has suspended Dubai flights through 24 October 2026 inclusive; other carriers have different schedules.
