Without a Yas Marina pass at the Abu Dhabi Grand Prix, charter guests won’t be able to step ashore and enjoy the on-land offerings. Read our guide to discover what passes are available, what they offer access to, and how they can be upgraded for an even more exclusive experience.
If you charter a superyacht at the Abu Dhabi Grand Prix, you will be allocated a select number of Yas Marina guest and crew passes based on the size of your boat. The bigger the yacht, the more passes you will receive and be able to distribute to your guests.
The standard passes distributed among superyachts berthed in the marina for the F1 fixture are known as ‘Yas Marina Guest Passes’ or ‘Yas Marina Daily Passes’. As the name suggests, one of these passes will be available for just one day at a time and will give access to the following areas:
- Yas Marina pontoons and boardwalk
- The Oasis area of Yas Marina Circuit (not including grandstand access)
- General admission access to the nightly post-race concerts
- A pit-lane walk experience on Thursday
Visitors to the grand prix who would like fast-track entry into one of the Race-week after-race concerts, as well as front-row access, can upgrade their daily guest pass to include Golden Circle concert admission. For more details, read our exclusive after-race entertainment article.
Additional Guest Passes may also be purchased, subject to availability.
For Middle East yacht charter guests seeking a heightened level of exclusivity, the Yas Marina VIP Pass offers an enhanced package of benefits. VIP pass holders can enjoy a range of premium inclusions, such as expanded access around the marina and additional race-week privileges designed to enrich the overall experience.
Unlike the Daily Passes, VIP passes are issued for the full four days of the Grand Prix weekend, meaning guests can use the same pass throughout the event.
Each yacht will also receive a number of Yas Marina Crew Passes, allowing crew members to access the marina jetties and pontoons as needed. Additional crew passes can be purchased for motor yacht charters over a certain length, ensuring adequate access for all essential personnel.
The ‘Super Parks Pass’ is a brilliant option for spectators at the grand prix who would like to venture beyond Yas Marina and experience some of the wonderful attractions available in Abu Dhabi. From Wednesday to Sunday, holders of a Super Pack Pass are eligible to visit the following:
- Ferrari World Abu Dhabi
- Yas Waterworld Abu Dhabi
- Warner Brothers Abu Dhabi
