The fourth artist has finally been announced…
…and it’s none other than global superstar and entertainment juggernaut, Post Malone.
The Syracuse-born chartbuster last performed in the UAE capital during the Abu Dhabi Grand Prix weekend back in 2018, and his return 7 whole years later is sure to be welcomed with a sold-out, motorsport-mad crowd at Etihad Park on Yas Island – after a day of free practice sessions on-track on Friday, December 5.

The 9-time diamond-certified, Grammy-nominated entertainer will join a star-studded line-up of timeless artists, including metal behemoths Metallica, pop star Katy Perry and up-and-comer Benson Boone.
Austin Richard Post a.k.a Post Malone is one of the most successful and genre-defying performers of his generation, with chart-topping superhits such as Circles, Rockstar and Jackie Chan, and 20-time platinum single Sunflower which surpassed 80 million records sold worldwide.
Only last year, he showcased his versatility in debut country album ‘F-1 Trillion’, whose lead lead single I Had Some Help debuted at number one on the Billboard Hot 100 and stood tall atop the rankings for a full six weeks.
More on the other performers…
Let’s take a look at who else 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 beyond sure this will be one of the biggest shows to come to town in a long time. Wait for hits such as Master of Puppets, Enter Sandman, I Disappear, and others.
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.
