Tickets for November’s Formula 1 Etihad Airways Abu Dhabi Grand Prix will go on sale on Thursday with organisers expecting another sell-out.
Yas Marina Circuit will host the penultimate F1 race, its third, on November 11-13.
Tickets will be available from a wider range of outlets than ever, including selected Etihad Airways shops, Virgin Megastores across the GCC, Ferrari World Abu Dhabi YMC kiosk, the Yas Hotel and Yas Marina Circuit.
They are also available from the 800 YAS (927) call centre and can be purchased online at www.yasmarinacircuit.ae.
“The Etihad Airways Abu Dhabi Grand Prix is already an established part of the UAE’s sporting and social calendar,” said Richard Cregan, CEO of Yas Marina Circuit.
“And this year’s Grand Prix takes place during the celebration of the 40th anniversary of the UAE, so we hope that people will embrace the Grand Prix as part of their 2011 National Day festivities.”
The 2011 Formula 1TM Etihad Airways Abu Dhabi Grand Prix will offer three ticket categories with grandstand tickets being priced at AED1,800 for two days and AED 2,000 for three days, the same cost as last year.
Organisers said a 20 percent discount would be offered for tickets sold before May 31.
Premium Category 1 tickets will cost AED4,250, also unchanged from last year. These three-day tickets offer the chance to enjoy balcony seating, air-conditioned lounges with food and beverage service, and complimentary parking.
Paddock club tickets start from AED16,900, which include a full VIP experience.
“This season is already proving to be the most exciting in recent F1 history,” Cregan said. “We have plans to make the Abu Dhabi event even more exciting than before, so I believe race-goers are in for a real treat at Yas this year.”
