There hasn’t been a day where Abu Dhabi fails to amaze me, (and I hope I never see that day) because it was just announced that KATY PERRY will be performing for the Abu Dhabi F1 Grand Prix Yasalam after-race concert! Yes, I’m talking about Ms. “Last Friday Night,” “California Gurls,” “Firework,” and “Dark Horse.” I can’t believe the same person who gave us our childhood anthem of “Teenage Dream” will be performing in the UAE! But get someone to pinch you because it’s true. Okay, enough of my fangirling over her – I know you’re here for the cold hard details, and that’s exactly what’s waiting for you if you keep on reading.

When Is Katy Perry Taking The Stage?
Mark your calendars – Katy Perry will be performing on Sunday, December 7, 2025, which is the final day of races at the iconic Yas Marina Circuit. She’s joining the ranks of superstars like Beyoncé, Rihanna, Paul McCartney, and Muse who have previously headlined this major event. This will actually be Katy’s first time performing at an F1 concert in the UAE, and her second time in Abu Dhabi, after her unforgettable New Year’s Eve show at the same venue back in 2017. (Lucky you, if you got to see prime time Katy!)

What’s Happening At The Grand Prix This Year?
The Yas Marina Circuit will once again be buzzing with high-speed excitement as it hosts the final race of the F1 season. Expect heart-pounding drama on the track as the world’s top drivers battle it out for the championship title. But the thrill doesn’t stop there – off the track, there’s just as much energy. In 2024, we saw performances from Teddy Swims, Peggy Gou, Maroon 5, Eminem, Muse, and the Afterlife Festival. While the full 2025 entertainment schedule hasn’t been announced yet, if history is anything to go by, it’s going to be absolutely massive. And with Katy Perry already on the list, my expectations are already set pretty high!
