Ramadan 2027 is expected to begin on Monday 8 February, Gulf News reports, which usually shifts evening schedules across the country.
March: The Phantom of the Opera runs at Etihad Arena from 10 to 28 March. Shah Rukh Khan's Unifyd festival comes to Etihad Live on 20 March, and Faraj Suleiman's tribute to Ziad Rahbani is at The Arts Center at NYU Abu Dhabi on 26 March.
Eid Al Fitr is expected from 9 to 11 March, possibly with 12 March added, which could create a long weekend in the middle of the Phantom run. Dates for Islamic holidays depend on moon sightings.
