Abu Dhabi Grand Prix expands ticket options

The Formula 1 Abu Dhabi Grand Prix has expanded its 2026 ticket portfolio, with options ranging from general admission and grandstands to premium hospitality experiences for the season finale in December.

 

One of the returning packages is the 16/360 experience, with bookings now open for the upcoming race. First introduced in 2025, the concept places fans inside the circuit, with views across key sections of the track, including Turns 6, 7, 15, 16 and the finish line. The experience is paired with a live DJ and elevated food and beverage offerings. 

 

A new general admission package, Abu Dhabi Hill, launches from AED995 (US$260) for three days. The experience allows fans to move around the circuit with access to fan zones and after-race concerts. Currently, the after-race concert lineup will feature Lewis Capaldi and Zara Larsson on opening night, with additional acts expected to be announced ahead of December.

 

Meanwhile, fans with a four-day ticket package will also receive complimentary access to nine leisure and cultural attractions across Abu Dhabi, valued at around AED2,200 (US$600).

Theme park access includes Ferrari World Abu Dhabi, Yas Waterworld, SeaWorld Abu Dhabi and Warner Bros World Abu Dhabi, alongside cultural attractions including Louvre Abu Dhabi, Qasr Al Watan and teamLab Phenomena.

 

The expanded fan experiences follow a record-breaking 2025 edition, which drew 339,000 attendees across the race weekend at Yas Marina Circuit. In 2026, the series will take place from 3 to 6 December. 

 

Formula 1 tourism is growing across the region, with Celestyal Cruises launching 2026 sailings built around the Doha and Abu Dhabi race weekends. The F1-themed itineraries start from AED3,300 (US$900), including an eight-night Doha Grand Prix voyage departing 27 November aboard Celestyal Journey, followed by a seven-night Abu Dhabi Grand Prix sailing on 4 December aboard Celestyal Discovery.

 

Earlier this year, the global championship’s regional calendar was disrupted after races in Saudi Arabia and Bahrain were cancelled due to tensions in the Middle East.
