Abu Dhabi Welcomes Limp Bizkit Back After a Decade
American nu-metal pioneers Limp Bizkit are set to return to Abu Dhabi on 12 August 2025, marking their first performance in the UAE since 2011. The concert will be held at the Etihad Arena, located on Yas Island, a premier entertainment destination in the capital of the United Arab Emirates. This performance is part of the band’s Loserville Tour, which has already electrified fans across North America and Europe and is now expanding into the Middle East for the first time. The show is expected to last approximately 2 hours and 30 minutes, delivering the raw energy and signature sound that made Limp Bizkit a defining act of the late 1990s and early 2000s. The band’s return is highly anticipated, especially by regional fans who have waited over a decade for another chance to see the nu-metal legends live.
