Yas Marina Circuit Gears Up for Yas Speed Festival Edition 2

Home to some of the UAE’s top motorsport events, Yas Marina Circuit is set to host the second edition of the Yas Speed Festival on 21 February. Following the inaugural event earlier this month (7–8 February), the festival promises a high-octane mix of racing action and family-friendly experiences.

This multi-edition festival brings together elite racing championships and immersive off-track activities, reinforcing Yas Marina Circuit’s position as a hub for motorsport culture and community engagement in the UAE.

For the first time, the Emirates Drift Championship finale will take place on the iconic F1 track, giving drivers and spectators a unique and elevated experience. Emirati drivers have dominated previous rounds, with Khalifa Al Falasi winning the Pro category and Ahmed Al Ailawi taking the Street/Modified Class, building anticipation for an intense final showdown this weekend.

The Yas Drag Roll Race championship also returns for its final round. The previous round saw a record-breaking 157 cars compete, marking one of the largest turnouts in the series’ history.

Off-track attractions include Yas Motor Majlis, a large-scale automotive gathering featuring over 400 cars. This celebration of regional car culture brings together enthusiasts, collectors, and families, adding to the festival’s inclusive atmosphere.

Aligned with the UAE’s Year of the Family, Yas Speed Festival is designed as a family-friendly event, offering ticket packages, a dedicated kids’ play area, a Festival Fan Zone with interactive activities, curated food trucks, and general admission access to the main grandstand. Premium VIP options are also available, featuring suite views for an exceptional trackside experience.

With a blend of elite racing, grassroots car culture, and entertainment, Yas Speed Festival Edition 2 aims to drive community participation, encourage shared experiences, and attract visitors of all ages to Yas Marina Circuit.
