The R&B sensation will bring 24K Magic to the desert on Friday, 29 September.

AlUla is turning up the volume with the announcement that Bruno Mars will return to the Kingdom this month for a performance at AZIMUTH Canyon.

This will be the second time the Hawaiian-born superstar has performed in the Kingdom, following a sell-out show at MDLBEAST in December 2022. The Grammy Award-winning hitmaker – he has 15, to be precise – is famous for his funky songs including 24K Magic, Locked Out of Heaven and Uptown Funk.

Bruno Mars, born Peter Gene Hernandez, is known for his silky-smooth vocals, infectious melodies, and charismatic stage presence. Bruno Mars' career skyrocketed with the release of his debut album, Doo-Wops & Hooligans, in 2010, featuring hit singles like Grenade, Just the Way You Are and The Lazy song. He has also collaborated with industry heavyweights including Cardi B, Ed Sheeran, Lil' Wayne, Mark Ronson and Snoop Dogg.

The one-night-only spectacular will see the 37-year-old singer-songwriter perform with AlUla's spectacular desert landscape as a backdrop. Doors for the show will open at 8pm, with Bruno Mars expected to perform a 90-minute set from 9:30pm to 11pm.

Bruno Mars in AlUla tickets are priced at SAR 250 for general admission and SAR 500 for premium lounge access (premium lounge seating with prime stage views, complimentary food and drink, premium bathroom access, and free valet parking).

AlUla is famous for welcoming big-name acts. Maraya concert hall has hosted Alicia Keys, John Legend, OneRepublic, Usher and Westlife in the last year. AZIMUTH 2023 is also coming to AlUla from 21 to 22 September and includes a star-studded line-up featuring Jorja Smith, Peggy Gou, Saint Levant and The Kooks.
