The Formula 1 Abu Dhabi Grand Prix always brings more than the thrill of the race — it’s also known for its big-name after-race concerts. For this year, pop artist Benson Boone has been announced as the second headliner, and he’ll be opening the weekend with a live show at Etihad Park on Thursday, December 4.
The American singer will be joining Katy Perry, who was previously announced as a headliner for Sunday’s after-race concert. Two more major acts are still under wraps, so there’s more excitement to come.
At just 21, Benson Boone has made a serious mark on the music scene. His debut album “Fireworks & Rollerblades” came out in 2024, and since then, his songs have racked up billions of streams. If you’ve been humming “Beautiful Things” non-stop lately, here’s your chance to hear it live.
The artist will be kicking off the race weekend on Thursday with an emotional, high-energy performance that fans won’t want to miss. He’s known for writing powerful, heartfelt tracks that connect with a global audience — and his Abu Dhabi set is likely to do the same.
Boone’s performance is part of the music and entertainment festival that runs alongside the Grand Prix each year. If you have tickets to the race, you’ll get access to the concerts too. And stay tuned — two more headliners will be announced soon.
