    Engines roaring, wheels spinning clouds of dust, a crowd waiting in the glow of the Middle Eastern evening sun, a collective roar ready to be released as the black and white chequers fall…

    The Abu Dhabi Grand Prix is one of the highlights of the Formula 1 calendar. It is an experience that encompasses both sport and culture, the international racetrack sitting just 30 minutes from the capital of the United Arab Emirates.

    Blend Group was approached to create an itinerary that made the most of the event and the location, with fine dining, desert experiences and, of course, VIP Paddock Club access for one of the most exciting dates on the motor sports calendar.

    With petrol on the mind, our guests were in the mood for some adrenalin pumping fun on arrival, leading to Blend Group organising a private dune buggy tour of the desert outside Abu Dhabi. Adventurous members of the group were able to experience the magnitude of the wide desert skies by continuing their tour through the sunset and into the night.

    Luxury Abu Dhabi Holiday

    The next day it was time to head to the track. The VIP Paddock Club is situated above the team garages of the Yas Marina Circuit, affording guests a prime view of the action on the track. The Club offers a Champagne bar and gourmet food selection, as well as pit lane walks, meet and greets with the teams, live entertainment and guest speakers. Our group of motorsports aficionados were able to truly immerse themselves in the atmosphere and events of the Abu Dhabi Grand Prix.

    A key element of the trip was the fine dining offered by the Emirati capital. Despite the tight turnaround, Blend Group organised experiences at some of Abu Dhabi’s finest local and international restaurants, a reflection of the international collaboration that goes into the Grand Prix. Guests dined at Li Beirut – a Lebanese restaurant, Nusr-Et – a waterside steakhouse and Sayad – a traditional fine-dining restaurant specializing in seafood.

    As first time visitors to the region, our guests were keen to make the most of their time and took the opportunity to visit neighbouring Dubai. This is a city of many facets, and we ensured that the group felt that they had experienced the best that Dubai had to offer, from a private yacht cruise taking in the iconic Burj Al Arab, the bustling Dubai Marina and the incredible architectural feat of the Palm Jumeirah; to a spectacular sunset, seen from almost 900 metres above the city, atop the Burj Khalifa, before dinner at a spectacular Thai restaurant, overlooking the majestic Dubai Fountain.
