Nokia is bringing world-famous Mark Knopfler from hit group Dire Straits to the Dubai Media City Amphitheatre on Thursday, March 3.

 

Following on from the worldwide success of “The Ragpickers Dream”, Mark will play a number of songs from his latest solo collection, called “Shangri La”. This album is peppered with fascinating stories and lyrics and some of the most engaging melodies Knopfler has ever devised, all beautifully brought to life by Mark and his usual group of players.

 

“Music is one of the universal languages that allows us to communicate across cultures, geographies and distances, and so it is a great pleasure for Nokia to sponsor the legendary Mark Knopfler here in Dubai. This concert is part of our ongoing efforts to share great music and great times with consumers across the region and the world,” said Zsolt Ménesi, Senior Marketing Manager, Nokia Middle East and North Africa.
