In Abu Dhabi’s winter, the temperature reaches highs of 26°C and the sun is shining. On the day at Yas Marina Circuit, wear light clothing and a hat – with a cover up for the cooler evening and the concerts. Attitude towards dress is fairly liberal in the UAE, but modesty is appreciated. A lot of guests choose to dress up for the occasion, but you’ll spend lots of time on your feet, so dress for comfort too.
