Top Arab stars are raining down on Abu Dhabi this October at the Abu Dhabi Grand Prix. Egyptian superstar Amr Diab, Emirati singer Hussain Al Jassmi and Lebanese diva Elissa will kick off the first night of the Yasalam after-race concert series on October 31, organisers Flash Entertainment have announced.
The after-race concert series this year is back to its four-night format. Flash recently announced UK electronic music band Depeche Mode as the final performers on November 3. Performers for the second and third nights are yet to be revealed.
All three artists on the first night have performed multiple times in the UAE. Diab, arguably one of the biggest selling Arab artists, has 25 albums to his credit, spanning more than three decades in the industry, while Al Jassmi, who is currently serving as a judge on the Arab version of the X Factor reality show, is one of the UAE and the Gulf’s most popular singers. Lebanese performer Elissa, also an X Factor judge, has made her name both as an actor and a singer.
Only Grand Prix ticket holders will have access to the concerts, although the tickets include complimentary passes for friends to the performances, amongst other privileges. Tickets to the Formula 1 Abu Dhabi Grand Prix start at Dh395 for one-day access and Dh995 for three-day tickets in general admission, while a two-day grandstand ticket will cost you Dh1,500 if you book early and Dh1,875 later. Lounge, Category 1 and Grandstand Club tickets are also available at various price points. They are now on sale now at yasmarinacircuit.com. For more on the concerts, go to yasalam.ae
