"We are incredibly excited that KISS, and City Drive Studios have chosen Atlantis Dubai for this first-of-its-kind initiative,"said Timothy Kelly, Executive Vice President and Managing Director, Atlantis Dubai."Atlantis has a reputation as being a trailblazer in the world of entertainment and we know that this first of its kind event will make for a memorable and record-breaking New Years Eve for our guests, whilst also adhering to social distancing requirements."
"Working with KISS is an honour and dream come true for me. To be able to capture them in such an explosive and record-breaking way will certainly be a career highlight. This show will be unlike any other show or live stream of 2020,"says Daniel E Catullo III, creator, director and executive producer ofLandmarks Live In Concert."Logistically, this was the largest production I've ever undertaken with a pandemic making it all the more challenging. Our crew is comprised of more than 400 people, 80% of whom are from the UAE. It has been a very complex show to put together, but we are happy to bring the world something of this size at a time when it is needed the most. It's the perfect way to KISS 2020 GOODBYE."
"With five months of planning, hundreds of crew, coordinating with the Dubai Government, major coordination with the band and the logistics of putting a rock show together during a global pandemic, this event will go down in the record books,"Daniel E Catullo III added.
The show will also feature a live pre-show that can be streamed for free. The KISS concert and pyro show will feature numerous price points to accommodate all New Years Eve celebrators safely from home. While the show will be broadcast live timed to midnight in Dubai, all of the streaming packages allow a replay option so that fans can re-watch timed to their own midnight festivities.
