Tickets for the 2017 Abu Dhabi Grand Prix at Yas Marina Circuit went on sale on Monday, 27th March, 2017, with a new offer allowing children to enter for free for a day.

The tenth Etihad Airways Abu Dhabi F1 Grand Prix, taking place from November 24-26, will allow one child under 12 to enter free on the Friday with each three-day adult grandstand ticket purchased.

The child will also be given free access to the nearby entertainment parks of Yas Waterworld and Ferrari World.

Ticket prices range from AED 625 for a two-day Abu Dhabi Hill pass to AED 2,200 Main Grandstand ticket for all three days.

Fans purchasing tickets before or on 31st May will be given discounts of up to 30 per cent as well as the option to buy a ‘GP Parks Pass’.

This allows ticket holders to enter the Yas Island entertainment parks as well as the races on all three days of the competition.

With this year’s F1 season introducing new rules making the cars wider, bigger and faster, organisers are expecting a greater spectacle than usual.

“Since our inaugural race in 2009, I’m yet to experience as much anticipation for a Formula 1 season,” said Al Tareq Al Ameri, chief executive of Yas Marina Circuit.

“The new technical rules haven’t just changed the appearance of the cars – they have made them faster and much more challenging to drive,” he said.

Although performers at this year’s Yasalam after race concerts will play only to race-day ticket holders, Yas Island’s du Arena hosts major acts each year.

Last year’s line-up featured Rihanna, The Chemical Brothers, and Lionel Richie and previous events hosted Kylie Minogue, Jay-Z, Enrique Iglesias. Aerosmith, The Who, Paul McCartney, and the late pop star Prince.
