UAE Peeps Are Jamming At The Second Season Of The Dubai Metro Music Festival
Here’s a fun fact. Commute = Impromptu Jam session
There is absolutely no denying it. But now, instead of plugging into your earphones, you’re going to be able to enjoy LIVE music across metro stations. Take a breather before hopping onto the next train and thoroughly enjoy these performances.
The Dubai Metro Music Festival just kicked off and commuters are thronging to the makeshift stages at five metro stations across the city
Peeps are thrilled with enchanting LIVE musical performances taking place at Expo 2020 Dubai, Jebel Ali, Mall of the Emirates, Burjuman and Union. The eclectic line-up of 20 musicians are bringing a diverse range of musical genres to the commuters of these stations. The first two days saw a vast and enthusiastic audience.
