Guns N' Roses, the legendary American rock band formed in 1985, is set to embark on a massive 2023 World Tour, headlining stadiums, festivals and arenas across the globe.

The tour kicks off in Abu Dhabi on June 1 at the Etihad Arena on Yas Island before heading to various cities around the world throughout the summer and fall.

Comprising of Axl Rose, Duff McKagan, Slash, Dizzy Reed, Richard Fortus, Frank Ferrer, and Melissa Reese, the band has a litany of success since they burst onto the scene with the debut album Appetite for Destruction in 1987, which reached number one on the Billboard 200 a year after its release.

Fans can expect to hear a whole host of smash hits, including Sweet Child O' Mine, Knockin' On Heaven's Door, and Welcome To The Jungle when the musical icons take to the stage.

This will be the first time Guns N' Roses has performed in the UAE since 2018.

Tickets go on sale on Friday, March 3 at 12 noon online.
