Experience a live masterpiece, La Perle tickets now available



La Perle is one of the most anticipated shows of this year and there's finally show dates and tickets for it.

To be held at Al Habtoor City in Dubai, La Perle is being marketed as a "live masterpiece" featuring immersive artistic performances, imagery and technology.

It is influenced by Dubai's rich culture and history, vibrant present and aspirational future, encapsulating the essence of the emirate, and is produced by legendary Creative Director Franco Dragone, famed for theatrical spectacles including Celine Dion — A New Day, Le Rêve (Las Vegas) and The House of Dancing Water (Macau).

The first performance will be held on August 31 and tickets start from Dh400 with bronze, silver, gold and VIP packages available.

La Perle, which boasts more than 130 world-class artistic, athletic and technical team members from 23 countries, will be held in a state-of-the-art aqua theatre and the audience will see the superhuman artistry and aerial feats such as diving from 25 metres in the air.

“This is a pivotal moment for live entertainment not only in Dubai, but for the region too ... we look forward to sharing this world-class show with audiences,” says Mohammed K, Vice Chairman of Al Habtoor and chief executive of Al Habtoor Group.

The show's executive producer Craig Hartenstine added: "The region has truly embraced the show with open arms ... each person who comes to La Perle will be witnessing a live entertainment performance like they have never seen before."

Performances run Tuesday to Friday at 7pm and 9.30pm and Saturdays at 4pm and 7pm.
