Alex Warren Joins Star-Studded Abu Dhabi F1 2026 Line-Up

Alex Warren, the singer behind the global hit “Ordinary,” is heading to Abu Dhabi this December to perform at the Yasalam After-Race Concerts during the Formula 1 Etihad Airways Abu Dhabi Grand Prix. Warren will take the stage on Friday, December 4, with another headline act still to be announced.

He joins an already packed line-up, with Lewis Capaldi and Zara Larsson performing on Thursday, Imagine Dragons on Saturday, and The Chainsmokers and The Script sharing the stage on Sunday. Organisers say Warren will form part of a Friday-night double bill, with the second act yet to be revealed.

Warren has had a huge rise in popularity following the success of “Ordinary”, which spent 10 weeks at No. 1 on the US Billboard Hot 100 and 13 weeks at the top of the UK Singles Chart. He has since released his debut album, completed a sold-out world tour, amassed billions of streams and received a Grammy nomination for Best New Artist.

The wider Yasalam programme will also include Andrea Bocelli at Etihad Arena on December 2 and Anyma at the official after-party on December 4. The Abu Dhabi Grand Prix itself runs from December 3–6, with Grand Prix ticket holders also receiving access to a selection of Abu Dhabi attractions.
