The energy was unmatched
The moment Aujla stepped on stage, over 25,000 fans erupted. He opened with high-energy tracks like ‘For A Reason’ that got the crowd moving immediately, working the stage from end to end and connecting with fans at every turn.
The production was impressive: massive visuals, immersive sound, and stage theatrics that made this feel less like a concert and more like a full cultural experience.
The setlist delivered
Aujla mixed fan favorites with fresh material. Tracks from his new album P-Pop Culture — including ‘P-Pop Culture’, ‘I Really Do…,’ and ‘For a Reason’ — hit alongside classics like ‘Tauba Tauba,’ ‘Softly,’ ‘Admiring You,’ ‘Wavy,’ ‘Take it Easy‘ and more.
The real excitement came with two brand-new tracks: ‘Courtside’ and ‘Tell Me,’ performed live for the first time with longtime collaborator Ikky. The crowd sang every word, danced without pause, and created an atmosphere that felt like one collective heartbeat.
This wasn’t just another tour stop. By launching his world tour in Abu Dhabi, Aujla made a statement: Punjabi music belongs on global stages, in open-air stadiums, and in front of diverse crowds.
