Sunday 6 December 2026 is the season finale of Formula 1 at Yas Marina, and the day most people want to be there. Watching race day from a superyacht means your own space at the marina front, Champagne and dinner on board, and the celebration on deck after the chequered flag.

Race day on board, in short

  • AED 25,000 per person, plus 5% VAT, for Sunday only
  • AED 30,000 for Saturday + Sunday: qualifying and race day for AED 5,000 more
  • On board from 1 pm to 2 am, free-flowing Champagne and dining all day
  • The race on screens across the lounges, and the cars passing the marina front

How the day unfolds

Guests arrive at Yas Marina early in the afternoon and are taken to the yacht by buggy. The afternoon is for lunch, the support races and the build-up, with drinks on the sundeck. As the start approaches, guests gather on deck and in front of the screens. The race finishes under the lights, and the yacht becomes the party: DJ sets on deck and dinner, until 2 am.

Why race day on a yacht rather than a grandstand?

A grandstand gives you a seat facing one part of the track. A yacht gives you a whole day of hospitality: shade and air conditioning, food and drinks without queues, screens for every lap and a place to celebrate afterwards. It is for people who want the atmosphere and the comfort; fans who want to sit at a specific corner should add a grandstand ticket from the official seller.
