The Formula 1 season will end the way it always does: under the lights at Yas Marina Circuit, 2 to 6 December, with a concert lineup that has stopped pretending to be a sideshow.
The 2026 Yasalam After-Race Concerts are now confirmed, and the headliners read like a festival poster. Here is the week, day by day. We have added the full weekend to yapped here.
Wednesday 2 December: Andrea Bocelli
The opener is the new Yasalam Classics series at Etihad Arena, timed to the first day of Eid Al Etihad. Bocelli, a tenor, a national holiday. From AED295, and the only show with standalone tickets on Wednesday.
Thursday 3 December: Lewis Capaldi and Zara Larsson
A quietly enormous double bill at the circuit. Lewis Capaldi has played Abu Dhabi before; Zara Larsson arrives on the biggest year of her career.
Friday 4 December: Jennifer Lopez, Alex Warren and Anyma
The headline night. Jennifer Lopez tops the bill at Etihad Live (formerly Etihad Park), with Alex Warren on the same stage and Anyma bringing his 360 audio-visual show to Yas Gateway Park. Expect On The Floor. Expect production. Expect traffic.
Saturday 5 December: Imagine Dragons
Straight after qualifying, Imagine Dragons play the circuit, from AED995. Radioactive, ninety minutes before race day.
Sunday 6 December: The Chainsmokers and The Script
The chequered flag falls, the 2026 season ends, and the closing party has two headliners: The Chainsmokers and The Script.
Before You Book
After-race concerts on circuit are tied to race weekend tickets, so sort those first via abudhabigp.com. Bocelli and Imagine Dragons are the two with standalone concert tickets. And if you are making a day of Yas Island around the sessions, Rowley's Yas Bay and Bayside Burger Co. are both a short hop from the circuit.
