With Ed Sheeran set to headline one of the most anticipated music festivals of the year the OFFLIMITS Music Festival in Abu Dhabi this weekend transport plans are being ramped up for fans traveling from Dubai. Taking place at Etihad Park on Saturday April 26 the event is drawing massive crowds from across the UAE and beyond.
To ease the travel for concertgoers Careem Rides has reintroduced its exclusive ‘concert rides’ service offering a 10-hour round-trip between Dubai and Abu Dhabi at a flat rate. Available to book in advance the service ensures a smooth journey to and from the venue with your own dedicated driver and a curated playlist that builds the excitement for the festival.
Passengers can choose from two ride options — a comfort car that seats four people priced at Dhs749 or the larger Max vehicle for up to six passengers priced at Dhs849. This door-to-door service is ideal for avoiding post-show travel chaos especially as no special public transportation has been announced for the day although regular intercity bus services will still operate.
Careem’s concert rides were previously a hit during Coldplay’s record-breaking performance in Abu Dhabi earlier this year offering an easy and reliable way to travel without the stress of finding a taxi post-event.
General admission tickets for OFFLIMITS are still available for Dhs495 while premium standing passes cost Dhs895. Alongside Ed Sheeran the event boasts a star-studded line-up including British EDM legends Faithless alternative rock icons Kaiser Chiefs chart-toppers OneRepublic and Ukrainian electronic duo ARTBAT. Over 15 international and local artists will be performing offering something for every music lover.
For those already in Abu Dhabi Careem is offering a discount code OFF20 which grants 20 percent off two intra-city rides making it easier to reach Etihad Park and enjoy the festivities.
