Alicia Keys and Pharrell Williams to headline Saudi Arabian Grand Prix concerts

The Formula 1 Saudi Arabian Grand Prix 2024 is racing into town from 7 to 9 March, bringing several A-listers along for the ride.

Saudi, start your engines because the Formula 1 Saudi Arabian Grand Prix 2024 is racing into town. One of the highlights is the after-show concerts, which include a star-studded line-up. Previous events welcomed A-listers, from Justin Bieber to Jason Derulo, and this year’s shows are just as exciting. Brace yourselves because Alicia Keys, Pharrell Williams and Martin Garrix will be headlining the final day of the event on Saturday, 9 March.

Pharrell Williams is an icon of the fashion and music world. He and his childhood friend Chad Hugo formed The Neptunes, whose innovative beats and production work revolutionised hip-hop and R&B in the early 2000s. Their signature sound can be heard on hits like Nelly’s Hot in Herre and Snoop Dogg’s Drop It Like It’s Hot. Pharrell’s solo career took flight with the release of his infectious single Happy. He is also known for the tracks Get Lucky with Daft Punk and Blurred Lines, a collaboration with Robin Thicke. In February 2023, Pharrell was appointed as Louis Vuitton’s new men’s creative director.

Alicia Keys is also joining the fun. The singer, songwriter, and pianist was born in 1981 in New York, USA, and began playing the piano at the age of seven. She made her debut in 2001 with the album Songs in A Minor which sold over 12 million copies worldwide and earned her five Grammy Awards. Since then, Keys has released several successful albums and has become known for her soulful voice and powerful ballads such as Girl On Fire, Fallin’, If I Ain’t Got You, No One and Try Sleeping With A Broken Heart. Alicia Keys is no stranger to the Kingdom, having performed twice at Maraya Concert Hall in AlUla.

It’s time to turn up the volume because the superstar DJ, Martin Garrix will also be performing. Over the last decade, Martin Garrix has cemented himself as one of EDM’s most prolific artists. He is a DJ and producer known for his hits AnimalsIn the Name of Love, and Scared To Be Lonely.
