    Fast facts

    1. First-ever twilight race in F1® history: The Abu Dhabi Grand Prix made history in 2009 as the first Formula 1® race to start in daylight and finish under floodlights, creating a stunning day-to-night spectacle unique on the calendar.
    2. Located on a man-made island: The Yas Marina Circuit is built on Yas Island, a multi-billion-dollar development that also features theme parks (like Ferrari World and Yas Waterworld), luxury hotels, shopping malls, golf courses, and a marina.
    3. A track that goes under a hotel: One of the circuit’s signature features is the section that passes beneath the W Abu Dhabi – Yas Island Hotel, making it the only F1® track to run directly under a hotel.
    4. One of the most expensive F1® circuits ever built: Constructed at a cost of over $1 billion USD, Yas Marina Circuit is among the most advanced and luxurious circuits in the world, complete with a state-of-the-art paddock, team buildings, and lighting system.
    5. Longest pit lane in Formula 1®: The circuit features the longest pit lane in F1®, including a unique underground pit exit tunnel, which re-enters the track beneath Turn 1 — a rare feature in motorsport design.
    6. Biggest fireworks show on the F1® calendar: Abu Dhabi’s post-race fireworks display is legendary — lighting up the sky as the season champion is crowned, making for a truly spectacular end to the season.
    7. Designed by Hermann Tilke: The track was designed by renowned circuit architect Hermann Tilke, who also designed many modern F1® tracks, but Yas Marina is widely considered his most luxurious and visually striking.
    8. Features a mega straight: The circuit has one of the longest straights in F1® — at 1.2 km — offering prime overtaking opportunities between Turns 7 and 8.
    9. Drivers race beside yachts: Much like Monaco, Yas Marina features a marina section where fans can watch from yachts, bringing a unique touch of glamour to the desert.
    10. Final race of the season: Since 2014, the Abu Dhabi Grand Prix has served as the final race of the F1® season, often deciding championship outcomes and delivering high-stakes drama.
  • Destination

    Abu Dhabi

    Abu Dhabi, the capital of the United Arab Emirates, is a modern metropolis that blends luxury, culture, and innovation. Located on the Arabian Gulf, the city is known for its striking skyline, expansive deserts, and pristine beaches. It’s home to world-class landmarks like the Sheikh Zayed Grand Mosque, a masterpiece of Islamic architecture, and the cutting-edge Louvre Abu Dhabi, which showcases art and artefacts from around the globe.

    Much of the action takes place on Yas Island, a leisure and entertainment hub that hosts the Abu Dhabi Grand Prix, Ferrari World, Yas Waterworld, and the Yas Mall. Whether you’re sunbathing at a beach club, dining at a Michelin-starred restaurant, or shopping at luxury boutiques, Abu Dhabi caters to travellers seeking both relaxation and excitement.

    Just an hour from Dubai and a short flight from Oman or Saudi Arabia, Abu Dhabi is also a perfect base for exploring the broader Middle East. And with its modern infrastructure, safety, and service excellence, the city makes for a seamless and welcoming travel experience.

    Whether you’re visiting for the Grand Prix or extending your trip into a wider adventure, Abu Dhabi promises a sophisticated, sun-drenched escape with something for every traveller.

    Climate

    In November, Abu Dhabi enjoys warm and comfortable weather, ideal for both race viewing and exploring the city. Daytime temperatures typically sit around 29°C (84°F), dropping to a pleasant 20°C (68°F) in the evenings. The race is held under the lights in the early evening, when the heat softens and the track glows against the night sky.

    Rain is extremely rare this time of year, and skies are usually clear — so you can pack light, but we recommend bringing sunscreen, sunglasses, and a light jacket or wrap for the cooler evenings at the circuit.

Very convenient. Book everything together.

Booking through Events travel gave us the opportunity to purchase Australian Open tennis tickets prior to the general ticket sales. They gave us an extensive list of hotels to choose from. We booked tickets at Rod Laver arena which we were very happy with. We hope to use Events Travel again.
