The Foo Fighters and Tiesto headlining concerts of the Abu Dhabi Grand Prix 2023 is one of the most remarkable news of the year for not only music enthusiasts but also sportslovers.
The concerts are being managed by Ethara, a recently established events company formed through the merger of long-standing promoters Flash Entertainment and Abu Dhabi Motorsports management. Tickets to the concert are bundled with Abu Dhabi Grand Prix tickets and will not be available for separate purchase.
This will be the inaugural performance of the Foo Fighters in Abu Dhabi, after their previously cancelled appearance at the Grand Prix event in 2021. This is the band’s first tour after the unfortunate passing of drummer Taylor Hawkins in 2022.
Furthermore, the Grand Prix weekend will feature a performance by Dutch DJ Tiësto, who will take the stage on Thursday, November 23, for the opening night. LA based Ava Max is also going to be performing in the after race concert.
