Enrique to headline Emirates Airline Dubai Jazz Festival

DUBAI, November 29, 2016

Award-winning singer, songwriter and record producer Enrique Iglesias will be the headline act for the third day of the Emirates Airline Dubai Jazz Festival.

Taking place at the Dubai Media City Amphitheatre between 22nd and 24th February, the annual musical extravaganza continues to be one of the most anticipated events in Dubai’s calendar and promises to elevate audience experiences on its 2017 edition with an exciting line-up of entertainment and offerings.

Tickets will be available from 12:00pm on November 29 with a limited early bird offer exclusively from www.ticketmaster.ae.

Undeniably the biggest Latin recording artist in music history, Enrique Iglesias has sold more than 130 million albums worldwide, released 10 studio albums plus two greatest hits compilations, and is a multiplatinum artist in almost every country around the world. Enrique’s illustrious career has earned him 27 #1 singles on the Billboard Latin Songs Chart as well as having multiple #1’s across the Billboard charts with a combined total of 105 #1 charted positions. He holds the record for most weeks at #1 on Billboard’s Hot Latin Songs chart with his hit “Bailando” at 42 weeks, and the music video has gained over one billion views on YouTube. Enrique’s 14th #1 Dance Club Song, “Tonight (I’m Loving You),” made him the king of the chart beating out Michael Jackson for the most #1’s in Billboard history.

Since 2011, Enrique sold out arenas in 109 major cities around the world spanning across five continents selling over two million tickets and landed the “Euphoria Tour” the #1 tour, twice, on Billboard’s Hot Tours list. Enrique has been celebrated with just about every award an artist can receive including multiple Grammy’s for his recordings, Billboard awards for sales, and ASCAP honours for writing. With such a list of accolades under his belt, he is set to take over the stage to wow audiences in what will surely be a stimulating performance.

“Enrique Iglesias is without a doubt the biggest Latin recording artist in music history. Being a charismatic singer, his appeal to fans of all ages makes him a perfect fit for our 15th anniversary celebration. Last year’s edition proved to be one of the greatest in our history. This year, we are working hard to surpass audience’s expectations and are eager to announce the rest of the talents in the coming weeks,” shared Anthony Younes, CEO of Chillout Productions, founders and organisers of the Dubai Jazz Festival.
