We here at Cosmo are just about the biggest fans of Now United, from interviewing them and filming YouTube videos to having their Middle Eastern member, Nour Ardakani on the cover of our Spring issue – we’re as big as stans get. Naturally, we have been freaking out that the band has been in the UAE for a while now.

Last week, the band got to visit Etihad airway’s state-of-the-art training facility and enjoyed a flight session at Etihad Aviation training’s flight simulators.

And while them breathing in the same air as us is gift enough, I think the band’s statement about the show “#NowLove – Live from Abu Dhabi” will be streamed live to an audience of millions of the group’s fans has us even more pumped. It will be Now United’s first group appearance since their sold-out ‘Dreams Come True’ tour in 2019. Since then their popularity has grown rapidly with 2 billion + views to their official YouTube channel and millions more across TikTok, Instagram and other Now United platforms.

This will be the first time that #Uniters from around the world will get to enjoy a performance featuring all Now United’s latest members from Australia (Savannah 17), Ivory Coast (Mélanie 17), Lebanon (Nour 19), and Spain (Alex 15).

Josh from Now United says: “We can’t wait to get back on stage and perform for our amazing fans. We have new songs and new group members, so this show is going to something special for us.” Nour added: “Having my first Now United performance in Louvre Abu Dhabi is going to be fantastic. It’s such an inspiring location and totally reflects what Now United’s all about. We are so excited to perform here.”

The Youtube video that NU posted earlier this month already hinted at the fact that they’d be holding a concert, but now that it’s been officially revealed – we couldn’t be more pumped! 

The virtual concert will be filmed in Abu Dhabi on July 1 and is (fittingly) called ‘Now Love Live Show.’ Now United’s latest member Alex from Spain has also recently just joined the rest of the crew in the UAE. 

Members including Josh, Any and Savannah have posted sweet images with Alex, welcoming him to the group. 

We cannot wait to watch all of them perform for the concert!

Don’t forget to tune into their Youtube channel at 10pm tonight, and if you’re a premium subscriber, you even get to join the afterparty!
