Every year, people gear up for the annual Formula 1 Etihad Airways Abu Dhabi Grand Prix. And every year, they wait impatiently to find out which artists will perform during Yasalam, the accompanying after-race concert series.

The answer is nearly here.

Early Tuesday morning, an announcement will be made about the weekend concerts, which are slated to take place November 20-23.

Last year, Jay-Z, Muse and Depeche Mode were the three big-name artists who took to the stage at Abu Dhabi’s du Arena.

An announcement has already been made about Thursday night’s performers. Musicians Tamer Hosny, Carole Samaha, Fayez Al Saeed and Mohammad Assaf are the confirmed acts.

*Two-day Abu Dhabi Hill General Admission tickets are priced at Dh549 (Saturday-Sunday), while three day tickets (Friday-Sunday) are priced at Dh995. Access to the Yasalam performances is for F1 ticketholders only.
