The season finale returns to Yas Marina Circuit in December 2026.
Start your engines and save the date because the Formula 1 Etihad Airways Abu Dhabi Grand Prix is officially confirmed to return from 4 to 6 December 2026, once again taking over Yas Marina Circuit for the final stop on the global racing calendar.
While all eyes are currently on the 2025 edition, excitement is already building for next year’s showdown, which promises a weekend of high-speed drama, world-class entertainment, and a crowd of racing fans from around the world descending on the UAE capital. As always, Abu Dhabi will host the season’s dramatic conclusion on one of Formula 1’s most iconic twilight tracks.

The full 2026 F1 calendar is already shaping up to be one of the most dynamic yet, kicking off in Australia from 6 to 8 March, followed by stops in China, Japan, and a rescheduled Middle East leg that sees both Bahrain and Saudi Arabia move to April to accommodate Ramadan. The global tour will hit Miami, Montreal, and Monaco before heading through the European summer circuits, including Silverstone, Zandvoort, and Madrid in September.
From there, the high-octane action continues through Azerbaijan, Singapore, Austin, Mexico City, Brazil, and Qatar, before landing once again in Abu Dhabi, where the championship will reach its final and most thrilling lap.

Following a dominant performance by Max Verstappen in 2024, and with the 2025 grid already stacked with talent and rivalries, the 2026 edition promises to deliver another unforgettable finish. Expect a packed programme of on-track action, after-race concerts, fan zones, and more — but fair warning, tickets are known to sell out fast, and demand for grandstand views and hospitality packages grows every year.
So, whether you’re a motorsport loyalist or simply in it for the atmosphere, the Formula 1 Etihad Airways Abu Dhabi Grand Prix 2026 should be firmly on your calendar.
