Imagine Dragons will headline the Abu Dhabi Grand Prix after-race concert series.
Organisers confirmed the major booking on Saturday. The multi-platinum American rock band will take the stage at Etihad Park on Yas Island during the final race weekend of the season. Fans can access the concert using their grandstand tickets.
Imagine Dragons Return to Yas Island
The band previously played in Abu Dhabi to a sold-out crowd. Their return shows the growing appeal of the Yasalam After-Race Concerts. Fans can expect to hear massive hits like "Believer," "Thunder," and "Radioactive" under the lights of Etihad Park.
The concert series remains a massive draw for international tourists. Many visitors travel to the UAE specifically for the combination of motorsport and live entertainment. Organisers expect this year's ticket sales to match previous record-breaking seasons.
Accessing the Yasalam Concerts
Racegoers need a valid grandstand ticket to attend the evening performances. Ticket holders can upgrade their packages to secure golden circle access close to the stage. These upgrades usually sell out quickly once the full lineup is revealed.
The concert venue sits within walking distance of the Yas Marina Circuit. This layout allows fans to move from the trackside action straight to the music arena. Public transport and shuttle buses will run throughout the weekend to handle the crowds.
The Formula One Season Finale
The Abu Dhabi Grand Prix serves as the final race on the Formula One calendar. This positioning ensures high drama on the track, often deciding the world championship. The race weekend brings tens of thousands of international visitors to the capital.
Local hotels on Yas Island and across the city report high occupancy levels months in advance. The event provides a major boost to the local economy, particularly the hospitality and retail sectors. Yas Island continues to expand its portfolio of major attractions to support this growth.
More Acts to Be Announced
Organisers plan to reveal more headliners in the coming weeks. The four-day festival typically features a mix of rock, pop, hip-hop, and electronic music stars. Past performers include some of the biggest names in the global music industry.
AbuDhabi.News understands that negotiations with other international artists are in the final stages. The full lineup will cover four consecutive nights of entertainment. Announcement dates will be shared on official social media channels.
