Dubai Calendar announced this morning that Zayn Malik, the former One Direction band member turned solo artist, will be performing in Dubai for the first time this coming October. 

He was due to perform in Dubai with One Direction in 2015 but left the band days before the show. This one-off concert will take place at Autism Rocks Arena on Friday, October 7.

Pre-registration for tickets are available here. Tickets will go on sale next week.

Like I’d love to see Zayn Malik perform live in Dubai (he’s coming here October 17), but then I’d have to bear the teenyboppers. ????
