You said his name three times, and now… your wish is granted: Beetlejuice the Musical is in Abu Dhabi

Abu Dhabi has been on a roll lately, bringing in musical fans from across the city and the country with its lineup. We’ve heard the people sing with Les Misérables: The Arena Spectacular and we continued to sing some of the greatest tunes of all time when Mamma Mia! danced into town in June 2025.

And now, BEETLEJUICE the Musical is in town.

However, the hilarious ghost will be in Abu Dhabi only for 10 days from Thursday, November 20 to 30, 2025.

Tickets to see him and the crew are available on etihadarena.ae for a starting price of Dhs145 over weekdays and on the weekend, prices start from Dhs245.

What is BEETLEJUICE The Musical about?

BEETLEJUICE The Musical Abu Dhabi

BEETLEJUICE The Musical is based on Tim Burton’s dearly beloved film, BEETLEJUICE, and tells the story of Lydia Deetz. Lydia is a strange and unusual teenager dealing with grief from the loss of her mother and a neglectful father.

The house that they have recently moved into is haunted by a recently deceased couple and a degenerate demon with a thing for stripes. But thankfully, Lydia has a thing for ‘all-things-dead,’ and she calls on the ghosts to help scare away her father and stepmother. 

Beetlejuice comes up with the perfect plan, which involves exorcism, an adorable girl scout who gets scared out of her wits, and a whole (nether)world of pandemonium. Can you imagine the chaos that ensues?

We can’t wait to watch this!

Want to add more musicals to your calendar? Mary Poppins will be in Abu Dhabi in March 2026, and over in Dubai, we have Annie bringing her magic to the stage in December, followed by Wicked the Musical in January 2026.
