JEDDAH, SAUDI ARABIA – December 23, 2025 – Formula E has announced that three-time Grammy Award winning rapper and singer-songwriter, Future, will headline the live entertainment on Friday 13th February, at the 2026 ABB FIA Formula E World Championship Jeddah E-Prix, taking place at the Jeddah Corniche Circuit on February 13-14, 2026.

The American rapper, known for smash hits including ‘Life Is Good’ and ‘Mask Off’, started building a name for himself with a series of mixtapes before signing a record deal in 2011. Following his debut album, ‘Pluto’, which dropped in 2012, Future has since released a long line of successful albums, including ‘DS2’, ‘HNDRXX’ and ‘I Never Liked You’, many of which debuted at number 1 on the Billboard 200 chart.

Future’s style has earned him a massive online following of over 51 million monthly Spotify listeners, 14.8 million YouTube subscribers and worldwide sales from his nine studio albums, three collaborative albums and one soundtrack album.

With 15 Grammy nominations, multiple Billboard Hot 100 chart topping hits including ‘Way 2 Sexy’ and ‘Like That’, and collaborations with the likes of Drake, The Weeknd, Kelly Rowland, Nicki Minaj, Kanye West and Kendrick Lamar, Future’s influence is unmistakable.

Entertainment in the Jeddah E-Prix Fan Village won’t stop with Future as more high-profile artists are set to take to the Main Stage and keep Formula E fans entertained in between the racing action. These acts will be announced in the near future.

JEDDAH E-PRIX

The ABB FIA Formula E World Championship will return to Saudi Arabia for the second year in Jeddah for Rounds 4 and 5 of Season 12. The double-header night races will be held on February 13-14, 2026, at the record-breaking Jeddah Corniche Circuit. The world’s fastest street track remains the only venue on the Formula E calendar to hold a race under the floodlights, adding to the immersive spectacle fans can expect in Jeddah early next year.

The move from Diriyah to Jeddah proved to be a major success for FE’s showpiece race in Saudi Arabia, with last year’s double header becoming the most-watched Formula E weekend in history, smashing records with 65 million global cumulative viewers.

The Jeddah E-Prix weekend delivered non-stop drama with the action going right down to the wire on the first night. In a thrilling final-lap showdown, Maximilian Günther claimed a commanding win for DS Penske in Saturday’s race, with Nissan’s Oliver Rowland hot on his heels and Taylor Barnard, then driving for NEOM McLaren, completing the podium.

Twenty-four hours later, Rowland turned the tables, charging to victory on Sunday ahead of Barnard and Jake Hughes, then driving for Maserati, to close out an electric weekend of racing by the Red Sea.

Tickets for the Jeddah E-Prix are available at WeBook or the Formula E website and include access to all off-track entertainment including the concerts. Single-day tickets start from 100 SAR, while two-day passes begin from 180 SAR.
