Smith joins The Weeknd and Guns N Roses as headliners

Sam Smith has been confirmed as the third headliner for the Yasalam After-Race Concert at this year’s Formula 1 2018 Etihad Airways Abu Dhabi Grand Prix. Smith will perform Saturday, November 24th at the du Arena, Yas Island. He joins previously announced headliners The Weekend and Guns N Roses on Friday, November 23rd and Sunday, November 25th, respectively.

A globally-successful singer/songwriter who has won numerous awards including four Grammys, three Billboard Music Awards, and three Brit Awards, Sam Smith’s performance in Abu Dhabi will feature tracks from his critically-acclaimed Grammy Award winning debut album In The Lonely Hour as well as his most recent release, 2017’s The Thrill Of It All.

With The Weeknd performing on the Friday, Smith taking to the stage on Saturday and GNR rocking the crowd on Sunday – the first, second and third artists of the four Yasalam After-Race concerts – ticket holders can buy a three-day ticket providing access to all four concerts.

Since Abu Dhabi Grand Prix tickets were launched worldwide in March, interest has been extremely high with West Grandstand, West Club and Abu Dhabi Hill two-day tickets having already sold out and only a limited number of fan favourite three-day Abu Dhabi Hill tickets available.

The addition of the new one-day Friday products, allows ticket holders to build their weekend with a General Admission two-day or Hospitality two-day Marsa Suite, Terrace Hospitality and Champions Club ticket with a one-day Friday Paddock Club or Club at Trackside Terrace Friday.

Ticket holders can also take their weekend up a gear by purchasing Golden Circle upgrade tickets for the Yasalam After-Race Concerts.

There’s only four weeks remaining to buy Early Bird tickets for the Abu Dhabi Grand Prix, offering 20 percent discounts to race fans across a range of ticket packages via yasmarinacircuit.com. Early Bird tickets will be available until July 31st.
