Fasten your seatbelt! W Abu Dhabi, Yas Island, turned your race day into a luxe affair. If you’ve ever wished for Formula 1, but with a glass of something bubbly and zero sunburn risk, you’re in luck. The W Lounge has officially joined the grid and is bringing all the F1 drama to Abu Dhabi, without the pit stops.
Watch F1 Live at W Abu Dhabi With Trackside Thrills & Velvet Sofas
Don’t expect this to be your average race screening. You’re watching cars whip by at 300kph while seated above the actual track, velvet cushions under you, and signature cocktails in hand. Abu Dhabi’s W Lounge is the only hotel in the world built over an F1 circuit, and yes, that’s as cool as it sounds.
No tickets, no dress code and no stress. Just turn up, pick your seat, and catch the live action from a plush Yas-side lounge with full views of the track. Every race of the season is now showing live here, so you can cheer on your favourite driver with a mezze platter by your side.
And the crowd? A fun mix. You’ve got die-hard motorsport fans swapping stats, influencers chasing that perfect shot, and a few folks who just came for the skyline and stayed for the cocktails. Basically, everyone fits in, whether you’re all about pole positions or just vibing with the DJ.
Sundown Happy Hour? Now We’re Talking!
Time your visit right, and you’ll land right in the middle of Sundown Happy Hour. That means discounted drinks, groovy DJ sets, and the kind of high-energy crowd that makes every race feel like a party. Expect plenty of “Let’s go!” moments echoing across the lounge while the Red Bulls and mojitos keep coming.
You don’t need to book a table or commit to a full meal either, it’s all à la carte. So you can go big with sushi and sliders, or just sip on something refreshing while the engines roar. No queues, no FOMO, just front-row seats to Formula 1’s finest moments, all without the chaos of a grandstand.
