Huge name confirmed for Yasalam After-Race concerts

The gig will take place on the Friday.

British superstar Stormzy has been announced as the next major name to perform at the Yasalam After-Race concerts this December.

The ‘Not That Deep’ rapper will headline the Friday night schedule at Etihad Park after the day’s action of the Formula 1 Etihad Airways Abu Dhabi Grand Prix 2021.

 

 

The Croydon-born star joins Khaled and Lewis Capaldi who have been already announced to perform at the event on Thursday 9 December and Saturday 11 December respectively.

Speaking on the announcement, CEO of Flash Entertainment, organisers of the Yasalam After-Race concerts, John Lickrish said the event will provide fans with unmissable experiences with more world-class artists to be announced.

He said: “Yasalam has a legacy of bringing ground-breaking artists to Abu Dhabi, and this year is no different. Stormzy transitioned from the underground to the mainstream, and he is now considered one of the biggest acts on the global rap and music scene.

“We were eager to come back really strong following last year’s break in Yasalam After-Race Concerts, and with Stormzy now confirmed alongside Khalid on Thursday and Lewis Capaldi on Saturday, we are once again guaranteeing our fans unmissable experiences.

“All three of the headliners highlight Abu Dhabi’s standing as an international destination for A-list entertainment, culture and leisure. We look forward to announcing the final artist of our world-class line-up soon.”

The grand prix will see capacity crowds this year after the Abu Dhabi government gave the green light to reduce restrictions on sporting events in December.

All visitors will have access to the Thursday concert headlined by Khalid with single-day ticket ticketholders being able to attend the concert on the day stated on their stub.

Two-day ticketholders will have access to the Saturday and Sunday concerts as well as Thursday and those with three-day tickets will be able to access all nights of After-Race entertainment.

 

Tickets can be purchased via Yas Marina Circuit
