Global sensation Tyla will make her Bahrain debut on the 9th and 14th of December at The Desert Garden (the first show is already sold out). The Grammy-nominated artist, known for her breakout hit "Water," fuses amapiano, R&B, and pop, earning global recognition for her unique sound.

Sharing the evening with Pitbull and continuing on December 12th and 13th is the brand-new theatrical experience, "King of Theatre," which blends heritage storytelling with dynamic stagecraft.
Damian Bush, CEO of Beyon Al Dana Amphitheatre, commented: "This month’s line-up is a celebration of diversity. From Tyla's meteoric rise to Pitbull’s worldwide fanbase, these performances reflect our continued efforts to be a cultural meeting point for exceptional talent and unforgettable live experiences."

Beyon Al Dana Amphitheatre continues to deliver world-class performances, cementing Bahrain's place on the global entertainment map.
