About the event
What is Abu Dhabi Grand Prix?
The Abu Dhabi Grand Prix is one of the capital's biggest weeks of the year. The race runs 3–6 December 2026 at Yas Marina Circuit, with the Yasalam after-race concert programme starting on 2 December; announced performers include Andrea Bocelli, Zara Larsson, Lewis Capaldi and Imagine Dragons.
Beyond the circuit, race week fills hotels, restaurants, yachts and venues across Yas Island and the city with watch parties, brunches, launches and hospitality events. That's where most brands can take part — and where good content turns one busy weekend into a strong December campaign.
