Abu Dhabi Grand Prix 2025: Here’s your game plan to catch Katy Perry tonight
It’s Race Day in Abu Dhabi and if you’re seeing Katy Perry after, this will help you out
The beauty of a Grand Prix is that the action doesn’t stop on the track. So after you’ve watched the World Champion being crowned today and heading to Katy Perry, this will help you out.
Tickets to attend Katy Perry in Abu Dhabi
To be able to see Katy Perry, you need to have tickets to the Abu Dhabi Grand Prix 2025. There are no wristbands this year. The barcode presented on the Abu Dhabi GP app is the only way to enter the concert.
You won’t be able to get access with printouts and screenshots.
Where does the After-Race Concert take place?
The concert takes place at Etihad Park, just outside the Yas Marina Circuit.
So, what time do I need to get to Etihad Park?
The gates to the Abu Dhabi Grand Prix concerts open at 6pm, and the venue fills up fast.
So, if you want to be close to the stage, arrive early. It will be a wait, and your feet are going to ache, so prepare yourself. It will be all worth it though when Perry hits the stage.
What’s the best way to get to Etihad Park?
Depending on which part of the track you are at, you can either walk on over or you can hop on board the free circular shuttle and save your energy for the actual concerts.
The shuttles run fairly often from all circuit entry gates. You will get off at the Etihad Park stop. Expect queues, but be patient.
Which gate do I enter through?
General admission: Head through Gates 3, 4 and 5.
There will be security checks, so it’s best to pack light and smart. General admission is first-come, first-served.
Golden Circle: Head through Gates 2, 4, or 5.
If you opted for the upgrade, entry is guaranteed, and you can enjoy priority access, but you would still need to arrive early to secure a spot close to the stage.
Once you’re in, you’re free to enjoy food and beverages available at the various kiosks and trucks.
IMPORTANT: Do note, there will be security.
Large bags and backpacks are prohibited (ensure your bags are smaller than 30cm x 30cm x 15cm), as are laser pointers, weapons, fireworks, flares, drones, umbrellas, and chairs. Last year, even perfume bottles were banned, so leave the Gucci at home.
You can carry an empty water bottle into the venue and refill it at water stations inside Etihad Park.
See you there!
