Who could the fourth artist be for Yasalam After Race Concerts 2025?
It doesn't matter if you're brand new in town, or one of Abu Dhabi's loyal concert-goers – we're pretty sure you can't wait to find out who the fourth, and final, name will be for the Yasalam After Race Concerts in Abu Dhabi this year.
And our trusted sources tell us the announcement is, well, imminent . Who's been confirmed so far?
You heard it first at whatson.ae – the Yasalam After Race Concerts has been confirmed to host some of the biggest names in entertainment this year, on the back of the Formula One Etihad Airways Abu Dhabi Grand Prix 2025. Let's take a look at who is coming to town: December 4: Benson Boone
Benson Boone first appeared for an audition on American Idol's Season 19, and so, in a way, will find himself reunited with Katy Perry (more on that in a second) – one of three judges who gave him a resounding 'YES' on the televised singing competition. Boone is the US singer-songwriter behind some massive TikTok tunes, including Beautiful Things, In The Stars, Sorry I'm Here For Someone Else, and Slow It Down. December 6: Metallica
The one, the only, evergreen heavy metal supergroup Metallica has been confirmed to perform on Saturday, December 6 at Etihad Park, and we're sure this will be one of the biggest shows to come to town in a long time. December 7: Katy Perry
This announcement had pop music fans Wide Awake – Katy Perry will be taking to the stage on Sunday, December 7 to close out the Grand Prix weekend. The pop star is known for hugely-successful singles including Hot N Cold, I Kissed A Girl, Teenage Dream, and others.
Watch out for a Firework , or ten.
That leaves us with one final artist that's waiting to be revealed. Who could it be?
Well, it's anyone's guess – and you'll have to stay tuned to the What's On news mill to find out.
But until then, here are a couple of our personal favourites from years past: 2025: Eminem
The 15-time Grammy Award winner and Academy Award winner brought a roaring, motorsport-mad crowd to its feet last December, belting out hits such as Lose Yourself , The Real Slim Shady , Without Me and Sing for the Moment right here in the UAE capital. 2023: Foo Fighters
The Best of You hitmakers played on race day after Max Verstappen was crowned the winner, to close out a weekend of thrilling action both on the track as well as off it. There are few rock shows on the planet that grip a crowd the way the 'Foos' do. 2018: Post Malone
We have to admit this was one of our favourite Yasalam shows till date, so much so we wouldn't even mind if he returned to Abu Dhabi to perform again. The hitmaker's fan base is broad, to say the least – and you'll easily recall hits such as Rockstar , Circles, and Jackie Chan.
We can't wait…

BINI Aiah explores Mongolia after world tour
BINI member Aiah recently gave fans a glimpse of her trip to Mongolia through a travel diary shared on TikTok, highlighting her experiences immersing herself in the country's rich culture and natural beauty. The P-pop idol tried local cuisine, wore traditional Mongolian clothing, and enjoyed a scenic road trip through the countryside. One of the highlights of her trip was sleeping inside a Mongolian ger, or yurt, a portable, circular tent made of flexible poles and fabric, traditionally used for centuries in Central Asia. Aiah also attended a live concert featuring traditional Mongolian music played with local instruments, further deepening her cultural experience. The trip came after BINI completed their 15-city 'BINIverse' world tour, which brought them to Dubai, London, Toronto, New York City, Boston, Los Angeles, Vancouver, and more. The group capped off the tour with a homecoming fan meeting at the SM Mall of Asia Arena last June. In a past interview with Metro magazine, Aiah spoke candidly about adjusting to life as an idol. She shared that while the demanding schedule and constant spotlight were challenging at first, she is learning to adapt, crediting her support system, including friends who are ready to make time for her even on short notice. 'Either super planned out months in advance or spontaneous talaga,' Aiah said. 'I'm grateful I have friends like that.' She also shared how spending quality time with her fellow BINI members strengthens their bond, saying, 'Parang anything now, we get to do together.'
